How to release your print job

Send your print like normal.
After your job finishes spooling, release your print using the PaperCut web page using the following steps.
Open up a web browser and go to https://arch-print.syr.edu and login with your NetID credentials.
After logging in, release your job from the Jobs Pending Release screen. You can select {print} or Release All.
If you notice that your balance is not enough, don't release your prints. Instead, click Add Credit on the left. After you have added funds, return to the Jobs Pending Release screen and release your prints.
