Make the Most of Your Library: Remote Printing
On-Demand!
|
|
You can use our library printers remotely! If you have a document on your computer or device that you need to print, use our PrinterOn remote printing service to send your document to a library and print it out when you get there. If your library is not yet open to the public, you can pick up your print job through our curbside service. Here's how it works:
-
Install the PrinterOn app for your device, or go to PrinterOn.com and click on "Where Can I Print?" in the top right corner of the screen.
- Enter your country, state, and city to see what printing locations are available. (Not every library offers remote printing, but many do!)
- Click or tap to select the location where you want to send your print job.
- On the page that appears, provide your email address so the library can identify which print job is yours when you come to pick it up.
- Finally, browse to the file you want to print, and select it.
That's it! Now just go to your library, provide your email address and print out your document! (Regular printing charges will apply.) No more flash drives or emailing documents to yourself! You don't even need to get on a library computer.
