Click on File / Print / Select appropriate printer. Only press Print ONCE.

o The network will place your print job in a queue (line) and will print it when all other print jobs in front of it are finished.

o If it doesn’t print:• Check to make sure printer is on.

• If it was off, turn it on and wait. You do not need to press print again. The network has already placed your print job in the queue. It will print.

• Check to see if any lights are flashing on the printer.• If lights are flashing, read the prompt. Maybe the printer is simply out

of paper or there may be a paper jam.

• If other jobs are printing, but not yours, your print job hasn’t reached the front of the queue yet. Wait.

• If there is absolutely no activity coming from the printer, ask a teacher.

When printing, always preview the print job by pressing on the Print Preview icon. o From here you can see what will print and make any

necessary changes such as orientation, pages, selection. Check to see how many pages are scheduled to

print.o If more pages are set to print than

what you need:1. Enter only the Pages you want to print. [1,3,6] or [5-12]2. Highlight the text/picture youWant to print, then print Selection.http://youtu.be/ihrS4tswNbY

Save all your work to the H:/drive.o H:/12rbrown/…

Saving to My Documents doesn’t always save to your H:/ drive.o For example, sometimes the network will not recognize

your account even though you were able to log in.• When this happens, your work gets saved to the computer’s

hard drive.o ALWAYS make sure you can access your H:/drive.

It is best to use the Save As command rather than the Save command.o Save As gives you one last chance to confirm what you are

doing before overwriting a saved document.o Save As also gives you the opportunity to make a duplicate

copy of a document in another location, such as a flash drive.

Insert your flash drive before logging on to a computer.

When saving to a flash drive, make sure you select the proper drive before saving.

To eject a flash drive:o Click on the Safely Remove Hardware icon located on the

bottom right of the task bar.

o Choose the correct USBMass Storage Device Drive.o Click on it, OK.

Do Not Remove a Flash Drive by Pulling it out of the USB Port.
