Employees
Employees can print to campus printers from a desktop or mobile device. When on campus you must be on the Algonquin College LAN, and for mobile devices employees must be connected to the AC Secure Wi-Fi to print. To print from a desktop computer from home to a campus printer you must be connected via VPN. Note that jobs sent to print will automatically be purged after two hours if not released to print within this timeframe.
Key Operators
A Key Operator is a College employee in an office who is assigned to provide supports for printing in the area. Calling for service, replenishing toner and paper, and clearing paper jams are delegated to these employees with the Support of Algonquin Service Desk and Print Services. Check with your manager if you are unsure about who the Key Operator is in your office area. Print Services can assist you or your office with Key Operator functions and training. Please contact Print Services at acprintshop@algonquincollege.com or extension 2573 for more information.
