Issue

Campus Computing Sites printing options for guests to the University who do not have a print allocation and/or uniqname.

Resolution

If you have a uniqname:

• Visit the MPrint User Dashboard and if prompted, hit "Enroll" to register with the MPrint system.
• After your account has been enrolled, click the button to "Purchase MPrint Credits" if you do not have a positive balance.
• You can now print to any Campus Computing Sites printer! Visit https://mprint.umich.edu to print from a web browser, or log into a Campus Computing Sites computer to print to nearby printers.

If you do not have a uniqname:

Navigate to the MPrint Guest page to register and fund your new Guest account.

Begin by expanding the Register a Print Account section and hit the "Register a Guest Account" button. Fill in the fields of the resulting popup and hit "Register".

• You will receive an email to verify your email address. The verification link in the email will expire after 1 hour. If your link has expired before you try to verify your email, you will need to register your Guest account again.
• The Guest username you choose will automatically be prepended with "guest-". You do not need to use the "guest-" prefix when creating your username.

Next, visit one of the Tech Shop physical locations to purchase MPrint Credits

• The Tech Shop website requires a uniqname to log in which is why Guest users have to visit in person
• You can also obtain a Guest Copy Card from the Tech Shop if you are interested in making copies or scanning documents to email

After purchasing MPrint Credits from the Tech Shop, you will receive an email with the MPrint Credit Code(s) representing the funds you purchased. Return to the MPrint Guest page and expand the section titled "Visit the University Tech Shop to Add Funds and Get a Copy Card". Click on "Redeem MPrint Credits" to enter the Credit Code(s) you purchased. Click on "Attach Card to Guest Account" to connect your new Guest Copy Card to your Guest account, enabling you to scan documents to your email or use your funds to make copies.

• The funds from your MPrint Credit Codes will never expire

Now that you have a Guest Account and funds to use, it's time to print. Find a dedicated guest computer at one of the University Library locations and print away. When you try to print your document on a guest computer, you will receive a log in prompt from our Print system. Type in the Guest Account username you registered earlier along with the password you created to complete the printing process.
