Using Follow-You Printing

Users can use Follow-You Printing to release documents held in the print queue associated with the user’s account from any device within a predefined pull group, which is connected to the particular print server. Multi-Server Follow-You Printing allows users to select any remote print server accessible to the device within a predefined pull group, and pull documents for printing. This is useful if the user has printed documents to different print servers, and wants to print them at the same device.

  1. On the Login screen, enter your user credentials or swipe your card.
  2. From the Login screen, press Login & Release Print Jobs. The Follow-You Printing screen opens with a list of your documents held in the secure print queue.
  3. If Equitrac is configured to prompt for a release key on the device, the Release Key screen opens. Enter the release key and click OK.
    The Follow-You Printing screen opens, displaying a list of documents held in the secure print queue for the logged-in user.
