What Is PrintAnywhere?

PrintAnywhere (and Student_PrintAnywhere) is a print queue that allows print jobs to be released and printed at any one of several printers within the campus. The PrintAnywhere functionality is primarily designed for Student use. However, it can also be used by Staff and Faculty.  PrintAnywhere allows you to send a document for printing and access it from any printer apart from the 3 Fiery printers (see below). By default, the PrintAnywhere print queue will be installed on all computers in the Computer Lab, Main Library & the ABBA Resource Centre.

How To Print With PrintAnywhere

1. You must be using a Tyndale Computer to use PrintAnywhere (Library, Computer Labs or Classrooms)
2. Open your application and/or document
3. Initiate a print (typically File > Print or CTRL + P)
4. From the list of printers select PrintAnywhere
5. Select Printer Properties if you need to select any options such as colour or double sided
6. Select the Print button
7. Select Accept to proceed with the print job
8. The print job is now waiting in the PrintAnywhere queue

Tyndale printers are available to all staff and students with either a student ID card or staff key FOB. The first time you log into the printer, you will need to tap your card at the tap point and the printer will then have you enter your Tyndale username and password to associate your printing account to your card or FOB. After this point, you can then tap your card and be logged in to the printer without entering your username and password. 

If you have forgotten your card at home you also have the option of entering your username and password to login without tapping your card.

If you have or are using a Tyndale-owned device, you can select any of the following printers to print to in the "Print" options of your application:

• PrintAnywhere
• Fiery_PrintAnywhere

Fiery_PrintAnywhere is for the two large printers, located at A301A and F402B. KM_PrintAnywhere and PrintAnywhere work for all other printers. After sending a print job to a print queue, you can release it on the device by either selecting Print All or Print Release and selecting which print jobs you would like to release, which will then be printed.

For non-Tyndale devices, please use the WebPrint feature at print.tyndale.ca to print documents. The WebPrint service only accepts documents in PDF format. You will be required to login with your Tyndale username and password and have the appropriate amount of funds loaded before the job can be released from a printer.

Adding Funds

If you are a student, you will need to add funds to your printing account prior to printing. Staff and Faculty do not need to add credit to their account to print. After logging in to print.tyndale.ca, click Add Credit on the left side of the screen. You can add credit by payments through a PayPal account. First, select the amount you wish to deposit from the drop down, and click Add Value to be redirected to PayPal's payment page. You may also pay in person at the Tyndale Library if you would like to add a custom amount of funds to your print account.

Printing With Web Print

Once you have funds loaded on your account, click Web Print on the left side of the screen. Here you can submit your jobs for print by clicking Submit a Job. All files printed through WebPrint must be PDF format. A maximum of 40 copies per print job is supported through WebPrint.

When you scan documents on Tyndale printers, the document will be sent to you via email and appear in your student email at webmail.mytyndale.ca. There is no cost to scan documents. Please follow these steps to scan to your email:

1. Sign into the printer (with your student card, staff FOB, or username and password)
2. Select Scan on the landing page

3. Select Scan to Email 

4. Select your scan options, such as file name (1), scan settings (2), check Addition Pages (3) if it's more than one page of scanning, and then press Start (4). If you would the printer to attempt to create text-based PDF version of your document, use the OCR to Email option (please note that the OCR option is dependent on the physical quality of the original source material)
