• Hill2 is the only publicly accessible printer. The rest of the printers are for CS Faculty/Staff Use only and are in rooms requiring special access.
• The job sent to Hill2 does not get immediately printed — the owner must release the print job by swiping your RUID card to the card reader next to the printer and issuing a command to release.
• Any jobs not released after 20 minutes get deleted automatically.
• Printing to ‘hill2‘ will count towards your printing quota governed by University computing labs printing rules (the ‘printgreen‘ printing conservation program) as described in http://printing.rutgers.edu.
• Issues with printing quota/funding problems — see  http://printing.rutgers.edu.
• The CS department maintains the hill2 printer; if you have any problems with actual printing, including the printer being out of paper or toner, please see staff on duty in CAVE  or let us know.
• Any job printed to this printer must have your NetID as owner. This is not an issue if you print from any iLab computers (where you would already be logged in with your netid). However, if you want to print to Hill2 from a laptop, you must set your NetID as your laptop username, or you will not be able to release the job.
• Please visit the printgreen website for additional information/rules/adding funds/FAQ related to the rules on this printer.

• We only support Postscript Driver. Always download the Postscript driver!
•  Generic usernames like administrator, anonymous, guest, nobody, root, and user are NOT allowed to print to our print server.
•  Single-sided printing does not work when printing from SunOS or a machine with LPRng. Single-sided printing works with WindowsOS or MacOS if the driver selects the single-sided option before printing. On printers capable of duplex printing, the default is always Duplex printing.

On a Linux shell, you can print single-sided using the following command:
lpr -Pprintername -o sides=one-sided filename

• There are many options you can set with a CUPS driver. See CUPS printing options for further details. CUPS options do not work with SunOS machines.
• Please note once a job is sent from your computer to the print server, you can’t remove/cancel the job. You can check the status of the job via http://printserver.cs.rutgers.edu. If you must cancel a job, please call the operator on duty at 848-445-2443 to cancel the job.
• For driver setup, see Printing to CS Printers from Windows, MacOS X, and Linux Operating Systems.
• Banner page, by default, will print on every print job except for the poster printer. 
• If you plan to print on paper other than ‘letter’ size, see the Paper Size Guide.
• If a printer driver for any of our printers is not available on your computer, select the closest available model to our printer. Otherwise, use the Generic Postscript Printer driver.

artisan, is a poster printer. It requires a special setup. Please read the instructions on printing posters for the Artisan before printing. Artisan, our poster printer has 36 inches wide roll paper. The default paper size on a document and printer driver in the United States is ‘Letter’ size (8.5×11 inches).

If you need a MacOS driver, you can get it from the HP DesignJet Z9 website. Windows 10 Notes: Due to a known issue, the current Windows 10 driver for DesignJet Z9 is incompatible with lpr printing. Please use the DesignJet Z3200 PS driver instead.

Important: The most common user mistake in printing posters is forgetting to set the right paper size in 2 places before printing. You must set both paper sizes to the right size for
1. Document Page Setup – the document will print in the size you want.
2. Printer Driver – so it knows what paper is installed on the printer.
3. Due to a bug on the driver that fails to detect the paper type, you may have to release the print job personally on the poster printer, or nothing gets printed.

The best way to print posters is to print them in PDF first. The PDF will give you a preview of what will be printed on the printer. When your PDF proof is ready, print the PDF file to the poster printer. Don’t forget to check the paper size set on your printer driver before printing your poster.
