How do I add print money to my account?

Each semester ACU students are granted a $15 printing credit.

If you run out of printing money you can add more:

  1. Go to an on-campus computer lab that has printers that use your print funds, such as the Library.
  2. Log in to a lab computer.
  3. Transfer the file you want to print to the lab computer. You can download it from email, a website, use AirDrop, transfer it with a USB thumb drive, etc.
  4. Open the file in the appropriate application. E.g., you could open a .docx with MS Word or you could open a PDF file in a PDF viewer such as Acrobat Reader.
  5. Use the application to print the file. This is typically something like File > Print, Ctrl + P, Cmmd + P, etc.
  6. You will be prompted to log in using your "Username or Logon ID." This is the first part of your ACU email address before the @ symbol. E.g., abc12a.
  7. If you have insufficient funds to print the file, you will be prompted to add funds. You can add $5, $10, or $15. This amount will be charged to your student account. Funds you have added this way and do not use will roll over to the next semester, and will not affect the $15 you get at the beginning of the next semester.You
    • Note: you must have insufficient funds to print your file in order to see the prompt to add more funds. i.e. if you have $1.80 left in funds but choose a file that only costs $0.20 to print, you will not be prompted to add funds.

You can check your current print balance on the "Balances" widget towards the top of the screen on myACU.

The $15 credit that you are granted will reset each semester and does not roll over into future semesters if not used. However, if you choose to add money to your printing balance it will continue on into future semesters and Uniprint will automatically withdraw from your $15 credit first.
