How do I print from a library computer?

1. With your document open, print it as you would from any computer (e.g. File menu, print, or CTRL+P).

2. Select a printer (Briggs Library Public BW or Briggs Library Color Printer).

3. Wait for a pop-up box, and enter a print job name--create your own print job name.  The password is optional.

4. At the printer, slide your card through the slot in the keyboard.

6. Select your print job from the display on the computer monitor. The total pages and cost will display at the bottom of the screen.  Click the print button, or click cancel to finish your transaction.
