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.

Buildings in red have wireless printers available
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):

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
