There are multiple ways you can print from library computers. All print jobs will need to be uploaded and/or released from Los Rios PaperCut website.
Below are step by step directions for the most common way to print from library computers:
- Log in to an available computer in the library computer lab with your student ID (w#) and Los Rios password.
- Open the document, file, etc. you would like to print in the appropriate program; for example, Microsoft Word, Adobe, etc.
- Note, is it not recommended to print from a browser such as Chrome, Firefox, etc. for websites, Canvas, etc. as print quality/area cannot be guaranteed/previewed. Please download the document/files you need to print FIRST and then print from the appropriate program.
- Select File > Print from program
- Library computer programs default to the library Black and White printers labeled “Library_Printers on arc…”
- If you would like to print in color choose “Library_Printer_Color-PC on arc…”

- Double check that all other print settings are correct for your needs.
- Click Print
- Double click the Los Rios PaperCut website shortcut from the library computer desktop

- You will need to log in to PaperCut with your student ID (w#) and Los Rios password.

- In the menu on the left click on “Jobs Pending Release”

- From that screen you will see a list of jobs you have sent to be printed including information on:
- the submit time
- which printer(s) you sent to (Library Printers = Black and White. Library Printers_Color = color printer)
- document type and partial title
- number of pages
- cost

- Click [print] in the “ACTION” column on the far right to release individual prints to the printers in the library OR click the green “Release All” button.
- If printing in Black and White you will need to pick one of the three printers in the library - all are in the same location and it does not matter which one you choose.

- Once you click on the printer name your print will be released.
- Your prints will be available at the printers near the Circulation desk in the library.
Make sure you don’t accidentally take someone else’s prints!
