BroncoPrint - Instructions for Use

The following list contains helpful instructions on how to use the BroncoPrint printing system. IMPORTANT -- You must have a current BSU Student ID card to print your work.

  1. After you click on "print", you will be prompted by a pop-up box to enter your BSU Student ID number in the first text field and a job name in the second text field.

    It is important that you correctly key in your Student ID number as the system will only associate the job with the number that you enter.

  2. Select "Print" after entering your Student ID number and a job name.

  3. A second pop-up box will inform you of three things (1) cost of the job, (2) number of pages to be printed, and (3) the job name.

    IMPORTANT -- This box will remain on the screen for a limited amount of time as noted at the bottom of the pop-up box. If left unclicked you must return to step 1 to print your work.

  4. Select "OK" to print. At this point your job has not actually been printed, but sent to a print queue where it will remain for up to 2 hours.

  5. Make your way to any touch-screen operated Print Release Station (PRS) located in the lab to print your job(s).

  6. Each PRS will have a card reader with which you must scan your Student ID card to login to the system and release your job(s). Upon scanning your card you should hear a beep which will let you know the scanner has correctly read your card. Re-scan your card if you do not hear this beep or your print job details do not populate on the screen.

    Note - If an error message box appears on the screen, or you are unable to login please inform the labtech on duty

  7. After successfully scanning your card, the touch-screen will populate a list of the job(s) you have sent to the printer. Select a job by touching the screen where the job is located and select "Print". The system will then display the cost of the current job on the lower part of the screen

    Note - You may also select to print multiple jobs at once by dragging your finger over all jobs you wish to print.

  8. You may also select a job and choose to delete it if you no longer wish to print it. Leaving it in the queue will not affect your printing or charge you for the unprinted job.

  9. Upon selecting "Print" the system will display your balance on the screen. This will be a negative balance for now. In the future, it will display your remaining balance.

  10. The job will release from the PRS and it will display which printer will print your work.

  11. Congratulations! You have successfully completed a print job on the BroncoPrint system.

 If you have any questions please see the labtech on duty. You may also send me an email (shenders@boisestate.edu) or stop by my office.
