Email to Print
Email to Print allows users to print by emailing their documents to a special address. Smith community members simply attach a document to email and send to one of the Smith FollowMe printer addresses. No special software is needed.
- Using your Smith email account, draft a new email message and enter one of the following email addresses in the To: field:
followme-bw@smith.edu - For black and white student printers
followme-color@smith.edu - For the color student printers
followme-mfd@smith.edu - For Multi-function devices (Xerox copier / printers) - Faculty and staff only
- Enter a subject in the Subject line.
- Attach the document(s) to be printed. The document format must be one of the acceptable file types listed below.
Pro tip: download Google Suite files (Docs, Slides, Sheets, etc.) as a PDF or other supported format to print.
- Select Send. Within 60 seconds, your emailed documents will be translated into print jobs and sent to the Smith PaperCut system.
- Visit any of the available printer locations in Seelye, the Science Center, or your department MFD.
- Swipe your Smith OneCard and tap to release your documents.
