Printing to the Pharos Colour Printer In The Digital Design Studios

We now have a Pharos colour printer situated in the Yellow Room in the Digital Design Studios. It operates on a similar system to the Pharos printers in the Library

To print from a Mac to the Pharos colour printer:

• Important: Ensure that the correct paper size (A4 or A3) is selected in the Page Setup of your program
  
• Select "Pharos Colour Printer"
  
• Check the page is formatted for that printer in Page Setup and the correct Paper size (A4/A3) and orientation is selected.
  
• Click Print.
  
• A Pharos dialogue will come up asking for your name and password.
  
• Do one of the following:
  

• Use your standard student log-in password, but do not let anyone see your password as this is revealed whilst typing it in.

(Cover with hand if necessary).
or

• Make up any word to be the print release password (it doesn't have to be an existing password)
  

Write it down if you have to - Pharos will ask you for this password later on

Go to the Pharos release station:

• Login, using your usual student log-in name and password, to view your print job list.
• Highlight and release the relevant file. One of two things will happen:

• If you have used your existing student log-in the job will simply be released

or

• If you have made up a word, a dialogue password box will appear. Enter the word that you created to release the job

• Log out.
