   2. Click Submit a Job, select the MobilePrint printer with the option you need (Single/Double sided, BW/Color), and upload your file(s). Your print job will be held for 1 hour, or until you release it at a printer.
      Supported file types are PDF, Microsoft Office, and image files.
2. iPads & iPhones - You can print directly from your iPad or iPhone when connected to SJFC-WiFi - no app install required! Select Print in any app and select the MobilePrint printer.

What if I have a problem printing?

Printers on campus are set up to automatically reprint a print job after a jam is cleared; the automatic reprint will not charge your printing account. If the printer does not reprint your print job automatically, you can contact the Service Desk within 2 hours to have the job reprinted. When contacting the Service Desk, please include the file name and the location of the printer.

If the quality of your print job is not satisfactory (i.e. smudges, lines, etc.) please contact the Service Desk within 2 hrs. so the printer can be serviced and your print job can be reprinted. When contacting the Service Desk, please include the location of the printer, the problem, and the file that was being printed.

If the Service Desk is closed or you are unable to get your job reprinted, the Service Desk can credit your printing account if there is a printing error. To have your account credited, please email the Service Desk within 2 hrs. of the problem and include a description of the problem (i.e. paper jam, poor print quality, etc.), the time of problem, and the number of pages impacted. Your account will be credited within 1 business day after OIT has verified that the printer had a problem.
