You may use student printing if you are currently taking classes at SMC.  If you are not a current student then please see the instructions for Guest Printing. 

Student Printing Instructions

  • Log in to a student computer with your SMC network username and password. Check in Corsair Connect if you don't know your SMC network username. 
  • Print your job from the PC.  In the Library, LIBCOMPR01 is the print queue for the black and white laser printer, LIBCOLOR.Q1 is the print queue for the color printer.
  • To pay for your print job you will need to add money to your account by going to an add-value machine.  In the Library these are located in the downstairs photocopy room.  You will enter your student ID number into the keypad on the machine then insert a $1 or $5 bill.  Add-value machines do not give change. These funds are then available for your printing needs on campus. 
  • Go to the print release station located next to each printer. Enter your student ID.  Select your print jobs and choose print.  The cost of the job will be deducted from your balance and your job will be printed. If you have problems please see the section on Printing Problems.
