Problem
Students often face confusion about how to send and release print jobs, where devices are located, and what to do when they run out of printing credit. Without guidance, this can cause delays, wasted funds, or missed deadlines.
Solution
PantherPrint simplifies the process by using a secure two-step print release system. Students can send jobs from any SCC lab computer, then log in at any PantherPrint device to release them. Quotas ensure affordable access, with options to purchase additional credit if needed.
