With AnywherePrints you don't have to print and sprint to grab your confidential prints. Your job will not be sitting on the printer where someone else can pick it up.
You print at any of the hundreds of printers across campus, all of which have the same swipe requirement. Thus, you have backup printing that is as secure as your primary printer. Imagine a broken personal printer where you have to email a confidential document to someone and ask them to print it for you. Then maybe you need to ask them to delete that email. And then delete it permanently from the trash. Are you sure they’re going to do that? With secure AnywherePrints your print job is safe and private at every printer, even if your primary one is unavailable.
Yes. After you've been moved to the new AnywherePrints environment, you can print from home or anywhere off campus by logging into NIU's VPN (Virtual Private Network) tunnel using the Cisco AnyConnect client on your desktop/laptop to establish a secure connection.
The Anywhere Print program includes letter size (8.5x11) paper in the print rates. DoIT Delivers and loads paper in many public facing printers.
The DoIT Service Desk will take calls and create incident tickets during non-business times at night and on weekends. Service technicians are on call to repair printers Monday–Friday 8:00am-4:30pm except on holidays.
Letter-size (8.5x11), Legal size (8.5x14) is available on all model printers. Tabloid size (11x17) is only available on Ricoh IM3500 and IM3510 models. Printing on your own letterhead is simply a matter of loading it in the letter-size tray.
You will be required to swipe either a OneCard or a Courtesy Card.
You can print from any device connected to NIUWireless, but you cannot print when connecting via NIUGuest.
Unauthenticated guest wireless is a more open environment with extremely reduced security controls. All NIU students,faculty and staff who mistakenly use NIUGuest to connect to our wireless network are actually treated as external users. And we want to ensure that all our users are afforded all the security scans and protection provided by our authenticated and secure network.
Remember that when you print from off campus, NIU users should use VPN to securely connect to the AnywherePrints service.
