7 . Once the job is submitted and printed the user will receive this confirmation and be able to logout, submit another job or choose another printer.

Important notes:

Job User ID:
Jobs submitted to the cash stations will be displayed using the users login Name, not the name of the station the job was submitted from. If the user is using Webprint from Lib04 the job will show up as the user and not the station ID Lib04.

Billing:
The price calculator for WebPrint has been turned off so the student will not receive incorrect pricing calculations. The Pcounter billing will still happen and the students will be billed as per normal.

Cash Printing holds:
The cash printing holds have been changed to 4 hours for the WebPrinting queues.

How to Print Multiple Pages:
This is a work around until this feature is available. (Note this a generalized process. It may change depending on which software product you use)
1) Download a PDF creator software product. Examples are PDFCreator, Foxit PDF Creator, CutePDF, or Nitro PDF.
2) Install the software.
3) Open the document in the appropriate program. eg. A PowerPoint  document.
4) Select Print.
5) Set up the multi page options.
6) Change the Printer to the PDF Creation program you installed.
7) Click OK.
8) The PDF software will then ask you to name the document and where to saved it.
9) Go to webprint.mtroyal.ca and follow the instructions above. 

Known Problems:
- PDF documents embedded in a web-browser may or may not work - recommend saving to the desktop and printing the PDF directly.
- Web pages that use a link generated by a search or require a log-in will not work - File -> Save as web page/html, then print the HTML file.
- Pages print as set-up in the document - PowerPoint ( Impress, or other equivalents) print one slide per page, and Excel (and equivalent spreadsheets) do not allow for fine tuning during the print process - the document must be saved with the print area/page breaks already set-up.
