Zak: /* How to Print */

'''You are responsible for setting up your print correctly.''' '''VizLab employees are NOT trained to set up prints.'''

'''VizLab only accepts TigerCash. You must use your LSU ID or a TigerCash card to pay.'''

==How to Print ==

===Sign Up===
Sign up for printing [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScB2fhVGuPwf5wEMf2GAcFo3bZoDH8KMCEtYnPNZMaBkFeQUQ/viewform here]. It takes up to '''15 minutes''' to be added to the list of users, so do not attempt to move on to the next step (adding funds to your balance) until you have waited the appropriate amount of time.

'''This step will need to be repeated at the beginning of each school year, as accounts are purged during the Summer.'''

===Add Funds===

You must add funds to your PaperCut balance before printing. Visit the front desk and tell the attendant how much you would like to add to your balance. Released prints will automatically charge this balance.
We only accept '''TigerCash''' as valid payment

== Requesting Refunds for Prints ==

You may request a refund via PaperCut if your print is incorrect or misprinted due to a printer error. All refunds must be approved by a worker at the front desk.

#Go to "Recent Print Jobs" on the sidebar menu
#Select '''request refund'''
#:[[Image:User Recent Print Jobs.png | 700px ]]

#:[[Image:Refund Request .png | 700px ]]
#See a student worker at the front desk to approve your refund

== Shared Accounts/Budget Code Charges ==

Under certain circumstances you may be granted access to a shared account to access funds charged directly to a budget code (project, grant, department, etc). To open a shared account under a budget code, please retrieve an "open account form" from the VizLab front desk, fill it out with appropriate signatures from a cost center manager, and return to Zak Berkowitz, [mailto:zberko1@lsu.edu zberko1@lsu.edu].

If you are granted access to a shared account, you will see an additional popup when printing as shown below. Under "print job actions", choose "charge to shared account" and select the desired account from the dropdown menu:

==Connecting to Copiers for Printing==

===Windows===
# In either the Start Menu search bar or Windows Explorer address bar, type <code>\\lsu-cmprint</code> and press enter [[File:Lsu-cmprint-explorer.PNG]] [[File:Lsu-cmprint-start.PNG]] 
# Double-click the icon for the copier you wish to install. For example, to connect to the copier at hostname ''copier-4107.lsu.edu'', double-click '''CM4107'''.

===Mac OS===
Instructions for connection to Copier Management copiers on Mac OS can be found [https://www.lsu.edu/hss/fll/files/macprint.pdf here].
'''Different departments have different policies regarding printing restrictions. For example, if your department restricts color printing, be sure to set the preset correctly as described in the linked instructions above or your prints will be denied.'''

The accounting system on the Xerox copiers does not always interface correctly with Mac applications. When printing from a given application, always try to do so from the Mac OS system dialog. If using Adobe Acrobat in particular, when printing always press the button in the printing dialog labelled <code>Printer...</code> to get to the system dialog or your print will not go through Xerox accounting and will not work. Generally, if you see the accounting popup requesting your copier code then the print will work, if you do not then the print will fail.
