How To Print - SNC Students, Faculty, and Staff

Please follow the appropriate instructions based on your role at the college.

SNC | MCW | Visitors/Guests

These instructions explain how to print for all St. Norbert College students, faculty, and staff. There are several methods, use the one that best suits your needs.

Email Method

When sending your document via email, it must come from your SNC email address so that it knows who you are.

  1. Email your document to printthis@snc.edu. This puts it in the "Follow Me" queue.
  2. Walk up to any printer, scan the QR code or swipe your ID card and release (only attachments will print, not the email message itself).

This method will assume these default settings: double-sided, black & white, one copy.

This is the simplest method that will work for everyone (students, faculty, and staff) no matter what device you're using (yes, even your phone, iPad, etc). This is also a great method to use if your usual printer is being serviced and you need to print to a different printer somewhere else on campus. It requires no installation of software and no setup of any kind on your device.

PaperCut Web Print

You can also print by following these steps:

  1. Login to papercut.snc.edu
  2. Click the green "Submit a Job" button
  3. Select the appropriate print queue (b/w, color, double-sided, number of copies)
  4. If you have multiple accounts to charge your printing to, select the appropriate account (most users will not have this)
  5. Upload the document you wish to print. You can do this by clicking the "upload" button to navigate your computer or just drag and drop the document onto the web page.

The above steps send your document to the print queue. Continue reading for various methods of releasing your print job.

File/Print for Faculty/Staff on a college-owned computer

If you have a college owned laptop, the "Follow Me" printer will be automatically installed on your computer, which will let you use the traditional "File > Print" method provided by most applications (i.e. Word, Excel, Chrome). This only works while you're on campus, but this method is a bit more convenient if you aren't working in a web browser or are used to printing documents at home, as an example. If you cannot find/select this printer when selecting a printer for your print job, check out our "How To Install A Printer" knowledge base article, which explains how to install this printer on your computer for Windows and Mac users.

Release Your Print Job on a Printer

After you've sent your document to the print queue, you then need to release it on a printer. All print jobs remain in the queue for 24 hours, after which they are removed automatically.

Any one of these methods will work:

  • Walk up to any printer, scan the QR code or swipe your SNC ID card (available on most printers), then follow the prompts.
    - OR -
  • Visit the Print Release (pr.snc.edu) web site (on the computer or your phone), select your printer from the list (start typing a printer name to narrow the list), then click the button to release.
    - OR -
  • Login on the printer keypad with your six-letter login ID, then follow the prompts to release.
