Wireless Printing

Users of the HDS wireless network can send documents (aka "print jobs") to a selected number of HDS printers using their own wireless computer and Crimson Cash. Please note that you will need a Crimson Cash account and a Crimson Cash-enabled card (usually your Harvard ID card) to pay for your printing.

The first step is to determine which printer you want to print to.

Printers can be found in Andover-Harvard Theological Library—a black-and-white printer located on the center carrel on the reference (second) floor of the library, and two black-and-white printers and one color printer in the Student Computer Facility (Student Lab) on the lower level of the library—and in Divinity Hall—a black-and-white printer located in the southern alcove of the Student Lounge.

Windows Install Instructions

Download and install the appropriate driver:

If you want to use additional functions, such as extra paper trays and duplexing units, go into your Start Menu, then go to Printers and Faxes and change the properties of the printers to turn those functions on.

Mac Install Instructions

Installation for Macs is more complicated. The instructions for Mac OS X 10.4 and 10.5 can be found here.

Usage

Once you've finished the install instructions, simply send your print job to the appropriate printer, and you will see the following popup (Note: the Mac popup looks different, but requires the same information):

Print Job Details popup window

If you are an HDS user:

Type in your HDS Username and then a description for the print job. Any description will do; just make it one that you will be able to identify easily.

If you are not an HDS user:

In the first field, create a username for yourself. It can be anything you want, just remember what you type, because you will need to retype it at the print release station. Then, in the second field, type in a description for the job. Any description will do; just make it one that you will be able to identify easily.

Once the job is sent:

Go to where the printer is located. Nearby, you will find a print release station. Move the mouse and type in your Username at the prompt. Swipe your HUID/Crimson Cash card when asked. You will be presented with a list of all of your print jobs. Select the one you want, and you will be told how much it will cost. Click on the Print button, and your jobs will go through to the printer, and your Crimson Cash account will be charged.

If you have a problem with a print job, or if you have any other questions:
Contact the HDS Help Desk via email or at 617.496.9111.
