Pitt Print Mobile Option - the Pharos Print App

Summary

Information on installing and using the Pharos Print app, also known as MobilePrint

Body

The Pharos Print app provides a Pitt Print solution for iOS and Android devices. Both versions allow users to upload print jobs, view jobs in the print queue, change print options on those jobs, and view the print quota for the account.

 

Installing and Using the Pharos Print App

  1. Download the Pharos Print app from the Apple App Store or Google Play by searching for "Pharos Print" by Pharos Systems International. The app is also available from the Pitt App Center by searching for "Pitt Print App (Pharos)".
  2. Enter print.pitt.edu for the server address.
  3. Enter 443 for the server port.
  4. Click Connect.
  5. Log in with your Pitt username (without @pitt.edu) and university password and click Log On.

 

Android

The Android version of Pharos Print contains many of the features of My Print Center. You can upload documents by clicking the Upload button and selecting any supported file on the Android file system. Features such as viewing print quota, deleting jobs from the queue, editing print options, and viewing job activity work similarly to the web interface of My Print Center.

 

iOS

The iOS version of Pharos Print allows users to view jobs in the queue, edit print options, and see the remaining print quota on the account.

Supported files can be uploaded with the Pharos Print App. Unlike My Print Center and the Android app, there is not an upload button, but supported files can be uploaded by loading the file and sharing it with the Pharos Print app.

Open the file to be uploaded and click the iOS share icon. From the list of apps that the file can shared with, click the "More" icon. Enable "Share with Pharos Print" and click "Done." You will now see "Share with Pharos Print" along with the other app options. Click this icon and then click "Print" to confirm the upload to Pharos Print.
