AIE uses a managed print solution from Kyocera and PaperCut. Printers are automatically rolled out to all Staff and Classroom Teacher PCs, and staff access print services by their swipe card, keyfob or other compatible security cards.
Printers are configured to hold and release jobs, this allows for secure printing plus simplifies printing as staff only need to print to a single printer - and can walk to any printer, at any campus, to release and print the job. This allows staff to be mobile and not have the complications of having to add specific printers at each location.
Setting Up Your Swipe/Security Card or Keyfob
Before you can easily print, you need to associate your swipe/security card, keyfob or any competitive swipe card with the print solution. Any card that "beeps" at the printer should be compatible, you don't necessary need to use an AIE issued card.
Note: Using an iPhone or Android Mobile Phone as your access printing access card will very likely not work as the phone's code constantly changes.
