Release of Liability

Wireless printing is provided for students’ convenience only. Students accept all risks associated with wireless printing such as but not limited to failed print jobs, lost/misplaced printouts, printouts picked up by another person, exposure of personal/private data, etc. HCU may not be held responsible for any problems that may arise from wireless printing.

Printing from a personal computer via the wireless network will incur the regular printing charges as outlined at https://myprint.hbu.eduRefunds will not be offered for any jobs printed wirelessly.


1. Go to the MyPrint web page at https://myprint.hbu.edu. This is same page you use to add money to your printing account. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR ACCOUNT BALANCE REGULARLY! As you follow the steps below, you will not see anything about your balance as you do on the library computers. 

2. Click either of the top two icons and login with your HCU network ID and password.

3. Click the Print icon.

4. Follow the on-screen instructions: 

a) Select and Upload file.

b) Click the printer and location desired. The library color printer is listed here. NOTE: If you select LIBSTU (the regular black and white printer), you will see a checkmark beside "color" printing option. Do not be concerned. This printer only makes black and white copies and you will only be charged four (4) cents per page.

c)  Select printing options desired (two-sided, etc.). If you select the color printer, then the color box is automatically selected. 

5. Click Finish.

6. Click print now.

7. Retrieve your copy.

NOTES

A. Since this is a web page, this will work for any laptop (PC or MAC).

B. There is a seperator page, however, it will not include your HCU network name. It will show MYPRINT$ instead. Please retrieve your documents carefully and do not get them mixed up with other student's papers.

PRINTING POWERPOINT PRESENTATIONS:

1. If you want multiple slides per page, look for the "Pages Per Sheet" option (in Step 3). Remember that anything more than 6 slides/page will be quite small.

2. Beneath the Pages Per Sheet option, be sure to change the Paper Tray: Use default tray: Automatically Select. If you do not, this will delay printing as the printer will want a different paper size. For printing problems, be sure to stop at the Circulation Desk.

3. The Web printing app will not print any notes that accompany slides. Also, you cannot print the option to display lines for note-taking (as you might see in a conference packet).
