Safe choice is the printer name you’ve used in the previous step.

Printer Sharing is not recommended at CIC.

By default all printers in CIC Rotterdam use the “Print Release” feature.
Your print jobs will be stored on a selected printer and only printed out when you release them on a printer. To do that first go to the printer you’ve printed to and select “Print Release” from the main panel.
Choose your document and confirm with “OK”.
If your document does not require colour, please check the “Print B/W” checkbox.
Make sure that the “Print and Delete the Data” checkbox is also checked. This way the document will be removed from the printer – please remember that if you do not delete the document, other people will be able to print it as well.
Tap the large “Print” button. The print job will start.
All documents are removed from the printers daily at 3am.
