Faculty and staff on the Potsdam campus will soon order up print jobs from any one of dozens of devices located across campus. Read below for important project and installation details to impact faculty and staff printing.
Say good-bye to the days of sending print jobs to a pre-selected destination with hopes it will be there when you arrive. Now with Find Me printing, individuals simply walk up to a desired printer, swipe their Clarkson ID card, and watch the high speed BizHub printer complete their job.
In this joint project with the Office of Information Technology and the Financial Office, the BizHub Find Me printer solution reduces paper and ink costs, and lowers support costs in the following ways:
- Reduce Waste: Have you ever sent a print job then changed your mind but it was too late and the job already printed? (Yes, we know this happens.) With BizHub’s Find Me printing, those wasted print jobs are eliminated.
- Lower Print Costs: These new units will reduce the University’s cost to print by approximately 40%. It is much less expensive to run these large, centralized units than it is to support desktop inkjet or laser printers.
- Lower Support Costs: The use of these smart devices allows centralized oversight of connections and maintenance making it possible for support teams to monitor printing performance across campus.
In addition to lowering costs, the BizHub solution offers these additional benefits:
- More Equitable, Accessible Experience: All BizHub devices are equipped to print both black and white and color. This increases the availability of color printing, making printing more convenient and accessible.
- Confidential Printing: With BizHub’s Find Me printing, concerns about sending sensitive or confidential information to an unsecure location goes away. Individuals are there to receive their print job at the time it is printed.
- Scan to Me: With BizHub’s “Scan to Me” option, you will be able to easily scan documents and have them sent directly to your email inbox without the need to enter your email address or select your name from a directory. Want to send your scan to someone else? No problem, you can manually enter an email address as needed.
Project Scope:
- New BizHub Printers with Find Me services will replace all Xerox devices currently located in administrative offices and public computing spaces on the Potsdam campus (see Locations list below).
- BizHub and Clarkson technicians will be on Potsdam campus installing new devices and removing old devices. Timeframe: October 2022.
- Onsite demonstrations and training will be provided to students, staff and faculty.
How Find Me Printing works:
- From your desktop, laptop or mobile device, choose Print.
- For Destination, select from drop down menu:
- Follow me in Color, or
- Follow me in Black & White
3. Select desired options, then Print.
4. Bringing your Clarkson ID card* with you, at the keypad of your desired printer, swipe your ID and wait for your print job to complete.
* Note: Older Clarkson ID Cards without bar code technology will need to be updated. To update, contact Campus Safety (315) 268-6666.
