2. Type in the command ⌘ + P to open the Print dialogue box.
3. In the Print dialogue box, scroll down to the option titled User Authentication. Click on the (i) symbol on the right.

3. Check off the User Authentication box.

4. Next to Enter Login User Name, type in your department's four digit printer code. If you do not know what your printer code is, contact your supervisor.
5. Click OK. Then, click the Print button.
