All units contain a color-coded name tag that indicates the name of the printer, as well as the fleet associated with it.
Students can print to units with green labels,

Connect to Campus Printers
Printer Log-In
Students and Staff are able to log into printers on campus using their StFX credentials (email and password), or by swiping StFX ID's on the printer.
To register your ID card to your printing account:
- Swipe your Faculty, Staff or Student ID card
- Log in using your StFX Credentials (first part of your StFX email without '@stfx.ca' and its associated password)
- Once your ID card has been associated with your name you can now log in using your swipe card instead of typing in your StFX credentials.
Secured vs Unsecured
There are two types of printing that can be done on campus; secured printing that sends documents to a password-protected queue, or unsecured printing that are sent directly to a unit and printed on the spot.
Secured Queue-printing: Secured printing allows you to print to a virtual queue allowing you access to the unit of your choosing to release your print job. Printing in this fashion provides additional security as your print job is only released when you log in to a unit.
Unsecured Direct-printing: Unsecured printing will directly print to the unit you have selected on your computer. This fashion of printing will immediately release your print job to the unit without requiring a second log-in on the device.
Toner Recycling
Each department is responsible for disposal of their used toner boxes/cartridges, which can be sent to the StFX Store for recycling
