Instructions for Pay for Print Windows Users
These instructions explain how to set up printing for PC laptops while on Arlington, Fairfax and Prince William campus and connected to the wireless network. After installation, the laptop user will have the ability to send print jobs to the Pay-for-Print system in two locations on the Fairfax campus, the Johnson Center Computer Lab or Innovation Hall Computer Lab, room 306 Original Building on the Arlington campus and in Bull Run Hall room 148 on the Prince William Campus. In order to print wirelessly to the printers in these locations, Windows users will need to install the Pay-For-Print software.
The software should function for Windows 98, ME, NT, 2000, XP and Vista. However, the following files function primarily for Windows 2000 and Windows XP. These instructions are offered as a basic guideline to connecting your laptop computer to the Pay-for-Print system. There is no formal support, but should you need additional assistance please visit the Johnson Center or the Innovation Hall Computer Labs on the Fairfax Campus, room 306 on the Arlington Campus or room BRH148 on the Prince William Campus during operating hours.
