(The following instructions were created using OS X version 10.5.8. You may find slight differences depending on the version of the OS you are running)

These instructions will configure your Mac laptop to print to the Medical Library's Pay for Print system. Once configured, this printer will be available to you whenever you are on the Yale network. You will need to use a CCP copycard to retrieve your print jobs. The printing charge is 7 cents per page. You must be connected to the Yale network both during the initial setup and whenever you want to print. If you using the wireless network, you need to establish a VPN connection before you begin.

The first set of instructions is for the Medical Library's Information Room printers. These print in gray scale and each page printed costs 7 cents. At the bottom of this page are instructions for the Color Printer. Each page sent to the color printer will deduct 50 cents from your copy card. The printer is located in the staff area behind the Circulation Desk. Ask desk staff to retrieve the printouts for you.

Note that you will NOT use your NetID to retrieve any documents you sent to the printer from your Mac laptop. Instead you will use your Mac's "short name" (explained below in more detail).
