Accessing printers

Your System Administrator is likely to allocate you printers based on your access needs. There are a number of ways in which printers can be allocated to you;

  1. Google Workspace
    If your organization utilizes the Google Ecosystem (Google Workspace) then use the ‘Sign in with Google’ button to access your printers. Use your Google credentials to sign in. 
  1. Microsoft 365
    If your organization utilizes Microsoft / Office 365 then use the ‘Sign in with Microsoft’ button. Use your Microsoft credentials to sign in.

     
  2. QuickCodes / self-provisioning
    Coreza Print supports self-provisioning of printers via the use of QuickCodes.
    QuickCodes can be used standalone or in combination with either Google Workspace or Microsoft 365. 
    Your System Administrator will distribute QuickCodes if they choose to use this method of printer allocation.

Advanced Finishing Options

Some printers may be configured to include advanced finishing features such as stapling, hole punching, Booklet creation, etc.

If advanced finishing options are available then you will see ‘Advanced finishing options’ under the three-dot action button next to the printer name.

You can set these options before printing and have your selection persist for every print job.

Secure PIN release

Your System Administrator may have configured some or all printers to use secure PIN release.

Secure PIN release means that you can securely send a print job to a printer and it can only be collected when entering your PIN number.

If a printer with a secure PIN release has been allocated to you, it will be displayed in the Coreza Print app. See ‘(PIN) Toshiba eStudio 4508a’ as an example in the image below.

Coreza Print automatically generates a PIN number for you. It can be found in the ‘Config’ tab of the application. It’s possible to change your PIN but it cannot be left empty. Delete the PIN will result in it changing back to the default.

If you require additional information on how to use secure PIN release, please contact your System Administrator.

Accounting Codes

Your System Administrator may have configured some or all printers to use accounting codes.

Accounting codes can be used in various different scenarios, however, they are typically used to track cost allocation across different areas of the organization.

Your System Administrator can configure accounting code submission in different ways;

Manual entry - You as an end-user are responsible for entering an account code into the account code box in the Coreza Print app under the Config tab. 

Text entry for every print - When you send a print job, you be required to enter the accounting code every time.

Selection from a drop-down - When you send a print job, you be required to select an accounting code every time.

You may need to receive a list of valid accounting from your System Administrator.

Edge Printing

Your System Administrator may have configured some or all printers to use our Edge Print feature, where print jobs are sent to your chosen printer via the cloud.

Edge Print enables the use case where you may wish to print to printers in your organization while you are at home.

If a printer with Edge Print capabilities has been allocated to you, it will be displayed in the Coreza Print app with a cloud icon. See the example screenshot below.

If you require additional information on how to use Edge Print, please contact your System Administrator.
