Printing to the wide format printer costs $10 per linear foot and first draws from your regular print quota, 然后从你的OneCard (RooBucks)中提取资金. 你需要 向你的OneCard中添加资金 if your wide format printer print job will use more print quota than you have available. Keep in mind that your OneCard balance is not directly connected to your PaperCut print quota and those funds must be managed separately. 

You can add funds to your print quota if you don't have enough to cover the cost of your print job by opening PaperCut and selecting "Add Credit." You will need to log in to OneCard to transfer some of your balance to your PaperCut account. 

注意:这种转移是不可逆转的. Once you manually transfer funds from your OneCard account to your PaperCut account, 你不能把它搬回去，也不能收到任何退款.

如果您没有足够的打印配额来支付打印作业的成本, you will be contacted by a representative who will instruct you to take these steps before the print job can be put through.

You can conveniently access the wide format printer through PaperCut by selecting the "Print Rooms/FabLabs" option in the side bar:

The Adobe Creative Cloud software is also available in all IS-managed labs and can be used to convert files to PDF. 您可以使用“另存为”...功能，并选择PDF作为文件类型, 或选择“Microsoft print to PDF”来创建PDF文件. 如果您正在使用不同的软件, 将文件另存为PDF格式, 选择“另存为…”，然后使用下拉菜单将文件类型设置为PDF. 如果你没有看到这个选项, you may need to select Print from your software and then choose ‘Print to PDF’ in the drop-down menu listing all available printers.

请注意:无论你用什么软件，分辨率都是最低的 仅图像打印作业需要600 DPI 最小分辨率为 150 DPI需要图像嵌入在文本重打印作业. 任何不足都可能导致图像模糊. 你也可以希望 关闭图像压缩 无论你用什么软件来帮助你的图像清晰.

 要正确地准备打印输出，还要记住:

• Be sure to flatten your layers if you are using a software that supports layers.
• 以确保没有意外切断, 确保在打印作业周围有一些空白. The wide format printer cannot create “full bleed” printouts (where it prints all the way to the edge of the paper).
• Please note that staff do not trim printouts or provide equipment to trim printouts.

提交打印作业时, 尽管只有一种纸张颜色和类型可供选择, you will need to select those settings in the Paper Stock section under Color and Type.

部门打印要求, fill out the "Departmental Print Request" fields with your department’s MoCode and the name of the fiscal officer who has pre-approved the expense.

If you do not fill out these fields, the print job will be charged to your personal account. You can disregard the Accounting section when submitting a departmental print request so long as you fill out the MoCode and Fiscal Officer fields in that section.

Here are some tips that will help your wide format printer print jobs come out the way you expect:

• You must submit your print job from a computer connected to the campus network. 这既可以在校内完成，也可以在校外完成 通过VPN连接 从校外.
• Printouts are always completed in full color, even if your print job is black and white.
• 宽幅打印机只使用42英寸宽的缎面纸.
• Always use Print Preview before printing anything to any printer so you can review your document and see how the print job should print.
• Only PDF files are accepted by the wide format printer: do not submit any other file types.
• Be sure to flatten all layers in your PDF before saving and submitting it for printing.
• A minimum resolution of 600 DPI is recommended for all wide format print jobs or your job might come out blurry. 有 没有退款 打印作业完成后.
• 以确保没有意外切断, 没有“完整”的打印输出, 所以在你的打印作业周围应该有一些空白. Please note that staff do not trim printouts or provide equipment to trim printouts.
