Printing a Worksheet

If necessary, set up an Xprint account via CLAIM; see Subsection 3.3. (You only need to do this once during the semester.)

  1. Make sure you have saved your worksheet; say as lab4a.ms.
  2. Click on File, then Print. Click on OK. (This creates a PostScript file with the same prefix as your worksheet, but with a .ps suffix; in our case, lab4a.ps.)
  3. Click on the background area to obtain the Root Menu. Click on Programs, then on Terminal. At the Unix prompt type the following command.

    For example, the command

    would send the printout to the high-speed Kodak printer at the West Campus Open Access Computing Lab and specify a box number at the Blocker Open Access Computing Lab.

  4. The system prompts you for your Xprint userid and password.
  5. Your file will print at the printer destination you chose. The staff may initially place it on the counter. If you don't pick it up within a period of time, it will be delivered to the box number you specified. (NOTE: In Blocker 133, Xprint output is initially placed in boxes below the regular CalcLab prinouts. It is arranged alphabetically by userid.)
