We recommend you link your badge to make future release tasks faster and easier.
    Note: linking your badge will let you skip typing in your WUSTL Key/Password when you need to release print jobs in the future
    Tap your badge against the reader. (this is usually indicated by a small red light on the surface of the printer to the left of the screen)
        If your badge doesn't have tap capabilities, you will need to use the screen on the printer to sign-in each time.
    Use the printer touch screen to enter your WUSTL Key user/password.
        Pay extra attention to the keyboard when enetering your password. It defaults to upper case to start.
    When successful you will be returned to the login screen

Releasing your print jobs

Tap your badge and follow the on-screen instructions to release your print job(s).

    You can choose to enter your WUSTL Key user/password on the touch screen instead of tapping your badge.
