The University offers multiple ways to release a print job that is printed using the Web Print service or from an ITC or Library computer that is supported by the Office of Teaching, Learning, and Technology group.

Once you have printed your document using the Web Print service or from a computer in an ITC/Library, visit a printer with a physical print release station next to it.
 

  1. Walk up to the physical print release station.
     
  2. Enter your Hawk ID in the Username field and click the Log in button.
    Login to Physical Print Release Station

     
  3. You will then be presented with a list of print jobs ready for release. If you wish to print a document, click the Print button. To cancel a document, click the Cancel button next to the document, which will delete the print job and not charge your account.  You also have the option to do a Print All or Cancel All as well.
