  User's Guide to Wireless Network Printing


Saint Anselm College community members and guests who wish to print wirelessly from their notebook computers in Geisel Library will need to download and install a Pharos client program. This will enable them to send print jobs from their laptops to the library's Print Release Stations, named Blue, Gold, and Green. They can then release their print jobs at the corresponding Release Station.

The installation only takes a few minutes. Before starting, make sure that you have the necessary privileges to install printers on your laptop computer. Once the Pharos client program is installed, you should not rename the printer.


Installing the Print Software

1)  Download the appropriate installation file, based on your status and the floor of the
      library where you wish to print.

      a.  SAC students, faculty, and staff – BLUE – Main Level Printing

      b.  SAC students, faculty, and staff – GOLD – Lower Level Printing

      c.  Library guests – GREEN – Lower Level Printing

2)  When prompted, save the file to your Desktop or another easily-accessed location on
      your notebook computer.

3)  Double-click on the file to launch the installation.





4)  At the "Select Install to begin" screen, press the Install button. The installation may
      take 1–2 minutes.

5)  At the "Finished Installing" screen, press the Finish button. You can verify that the
      installation was successful by choosing Print in Microsoft Word, Internet Explorer, or
      another application. Look for the name of the printer that you just installed, and send
      a test page if desired.


Sending a Print Job

1)  Select Print from the active application (e.g., Microsoft Word, Internet Explorer).

2)  Click on the Printer Name drop-down box. Select the printer that you just installed.
      Its name will start with the word "Library".

3)  For double-sided printing (note: this is currently available only on the BLUE printer),
      click the Properties button, go to the Layout tab, and under "Print on Both Sides", select
      "Flip on Long Edge".

4)  Click OK.

5)  When prompted, enter your SAC network username and a name for your print job, to help
      identify it. Then press the Print button.





6)  Go to the appropriate Print Release Station to release the print job.

      a.  StuFacStaff – BLUE: use the print release station in the computer area on the Main            Level, and log in using your usual network username and password.

      b.  StuFacStaff – GOLD: use the print release station on the Lower Level near the            photocopiers, and log in using your usual network username and password.

      c.  Guest – GREEN: use the Guest print release station on the Lower Level near the            photocopiers.

7)  Select the print job(s) that you wish to print, and press the Print button. For the Guest
      printer, you will need to insert cash in the coin box before printing. Guest printing
      costs 10 cents per page. Coins, $1 bills, and $5 bills are all accepted. The coin box
      will make change for any unused amount.
