PayPaw

A PayPaw card or formatted ID is required to retrieve your print job. Cash is not accepted.

Sending a Print Job to the Print Stations

When you print in either the Library Commons or in the Library, your print job will default to the floor that you are on. You will be prompted for a user i.d. and password; this is not your LSUHSC-NO credentials but can be a simple choice to differentiate one print job from another. The 4th floor printer defaults to color but can be changed to monochrome, the 3rd floor printer is black and white only.

Retrieving a Print Job at the Print Stations

Swipe your card on the card reader. Select your print-job name and press "Print". Enter the password you created when you sent the print job. Your print job will be distributed and your card will be charged.

Departmental Copy Cards

The Pay-Per-Print system does not work with departmental copy cards; those cards work only with the Library photocopiers.
