Overview
Employees and students are able to print in NCU-managed printing locations from their personal laptops, tablets, or smartphones. For example, a student can email a document from their laptop in their dorm room to the mobile printing service and then pick it up at a printer around campus. Print jobs are not printed until released by the user that owns the print job.
Only Microsoft Office documents and PDFs will work with mobile print. If using any other word processor, please export to a PDF.
