MSM's multi-function Canon printers are distributed across campus, including one in the Library and one in the lobby just outside the Library's entrance.
Please note:
If you have any questions or issues, including refund requests, please submit them using internet, computer, or printing issue report form.
MSM's Facilities and IT teams recently replaced the 21 Canon multi-function printers that are distributed throughout campus.
That's it, you're all set! Going forward when you print, your device will default to the printer named "Administrative Queue."
NOTE: This is best done on a computer or larger screened tablet. You may not be able to complete all of these steps from your phone.
You will be taken through the steps to login via MSM SSO (use your MSM credentials to log in)
Once logged in, you will see the Uniflow dashboard.
This should be your starting point for all your printing needs - set up your account, see your balance, view the files in your print queue, look at your recent scans, etc.
Your first time using the printers, you will need to get your PIN to connect your MSM ID to your account. This is necessary for you to be able to access your account balance and print queue when you tap your ID at a printer.
NOTE: Adding funds to your printing account must be done from a computer, not your phone.
Use your MSM ID card to pay for copies and print jobs. The machines do not accept cash (nor does the Library). Follow these instructions step by step to link your ID card to a PayPal account.
Black and white prints cost 5 cents per page. Color prints are 10 cents per page.

Complete the transaction using the PayPal window that opens.
You can use most major credit or debit cards (click "Pay with Debit or Credit Card"), or a PayPal account if you already have one set up (click "Log In"):
Once you have completed checkout, you can tap Return to Merchant on the PayPal page to return to your account summary:
Back in your Uniflow dashboard, your balance and transaction history will show your new available printing budget:
Back at the printer/copier, tap your ID, press Secure Print, select your document, and follow the on-screen instructions.
Black and white prints cost 5 cents per page. Color prints are 10 cents per page.
Please only print what you absolutely need, on paper.
The annual environmental costs of printing to paper are substantial, consuming over 15 billion trees, using waste amounts of water and energy, releasing greenhouse gases, causing deforestation and habitat loss, and creating landfill waste from discarded paper and ink cartridges
Download the appropriate app for your device:
NOTE: Your Uniflow account can only be connected to one mobile device at a time.

From the app, you can:
The staff at the circulation desk can often help with problems or questions. They can also supply paper and toner, should a machine run out.
If a copy machine requires a technician's expertise, we will call one in, but it may take a day or two. Meanwhile, please try using one of the other machines.
Problems using Uniflow or adding money to your PayPal account should be reported to IT using the internet, computer, or printing issue report form.
If you think you lost money on your account or are due a refund, please report it to IT through that same printing issue report form.
These machines can do a lot. Most people figure out the basics on their own with a little practice, but if you'd like to become a real virtuoso, here's the official user guide from Canon.
