Student Printing at Earlham

Student Printing at Earlham

Printers are provided in academic buildings and residence halls on campus to support the needs of student printing.  Printing is managed through a software called PaperCut which allows students to track their printing, print from personal devices, and add credit to their printing account.  Students are credited with an allocation for printing when they enter the college as detailed below.  Returning students will find the existing credit they had remaining after the previous semester.

Earlham Students$200 for 4 years = 4000 pages of single sided grayscale printing
MAT Graduate Students$25 per semester = 500 pages of single sided grayscale printing

Print Release Options

  • Print Kiosks for Black/White (grayscale) printers: For all the lab and residence hall printers there is a computer sitting next to the printers that functions as a print release kiosk. The browser should only go to print.earlham.edu allowing you to log in to PaperCut. Once logged in then you will select your print job and release it.
  • Prox Card Readers for Color Multi Function Devices: For all of the Color MFPs, that support printing, copying and scanning, there will be a Prox Card Reader installed on each one. Once you've associated your Earlham ID on any of these card readers, then you will simply tap your ID card on the reader to log in. Associating your ID card is fairly straightforward. Once you tap your card on the Card Reader, a log in window will appear on the display. Enter your username and password to associate your card to your Earlham account. Once you've done this, then you will be able to log in just using your card. Full instructions are available here: Card Association Instructions.pdf
