Laptop Printing

Just had a discussion with one of our student technology assistants about printing from the lending laptops.

Apparently they work with WolfCopy directly (should be able to send jobs to the black-white printer), but not directly with Print Quota. To use Print Quota, you have to use the WolfPrint method to send .txt, .pdf. or .ps files over the Internet.

Actually, I heard there's a bug with the laptops and WolfCopy at the moment, but that it should be fixed very soon.

Josh, maybe how to print from the laptops should be added to our [very helpful] How to Print guide?

yes, I'm going to ad laptops as soon as there is something to say. You'll see a tiny note about laptops at the very bottom of http://www.lib.ncsu.edu/computing/print. When this situation gets better, I'll work in the laptop info properly.

Josh,

I didn't realize that note was describing the laptops we lend...I thought that was just for student-owned laptops.
