Usage (Private Print)

This page describes how to use “Private Print,” a method for printing to a specific multifunction printer (MFP).

Private Print is a printing method in which you specify the IP address of the target MFP and send print data directly to that device.
When the printer to be used is predetermined, it offers a simpler alternative to IWpro Print.

This method also allows you to print large files that cannot be registered in IWpro due to file size limitations (approximately 1.2–3.6 GB).
In addition, Private Print is available for users who are unable or do not wish to create an IWpro account.

Preparation| Checking the MFP’s IP Address

To use Private Print, you will need the IP address or hostname of the multifunction printer you intend to print to.
For instructions on how to check the IP address, please see below.

Sending Print Data

 Printing method from a web browser

  • ＜Important＞
    • When logging in to the MFP from a browser, use your JAIST Account (User Account), not your IWpro account.
    • The file formats that can be directly registered to the multifunction printer are PDF, PostScript, PCL, JPEG, TIFF, XPS, and DocuWorks.

Printing method using printer driver

Printing via printer drivers is currently under verification; however,
we have confirmed that it may be possible to use the service by installing the driver and specifying a printer directly.
This is a trial method, but if you are interested, please try the procedure described below:

* At present, the guide is available in Japanese only. An English version will be provided at a later date.

Authentication of MFP

All functions of the Printing Device are available via JAIST Account.
Users who has JAIST Account can use his/her ID Card (Staff ID Card/Student ID Card) as Authentication Card for printing device.
If you find any kind of error during authentication, please refer the following points.

 

  • Users who has JAIST Account
    Please request us, Research Center for Advanced Computing Infrastructure (isc-query@jaist) to register your ID Card. At the time, don't forget to inform us your mail address and Staff ID Number.
    For urgent print, ID - password based authentication is available via the *認証* button on upper right of the front panel.
  • Users who don't has JAIST Account
    Please ask your professor or person in charge to request us for a rental printing card.

 

An operation manual is provided at the MFP itself. You can also check basic operations there.

 

Rental Printing Card

Users who don't have JAIST Account can use Rental Printing Card for authentication of printing system.
* Rental cards will be lent out to the host faculty/staff. Faculty and staff are requested to send an e-mail in advance to inform us of the user and the loan period.
* As a general rule, one rental card can be lent per faculty member.
