Student Printing

Pharos

Students and guests can print through the Pharos print solution.

Create your print document on any desktop or personal computer, upload it through the portal at remoteprint.fordham.edu/myprintcenter.or email it to Pharos at remoteprint@fordham.edu. You can also create your document at libraries and labs and send it directly to Pharos for print.

Print jobs can also be submitted to Pharos from most mobile devices. In all cases, you can log in and print your document at any University Pharos location.

The document is only printed when you physically log in at the print location and select the job you want to print. You are only charged for jobs that you actually print. Pharos will print jobs with most common file extensions.

Students and guests can create and fund Pharos accounts through the portal using the PayPal feature.

Cost per page:
Black and white: $.05 cents
Color pages: $.25 cents

$5 printing and photocopy credit from Fordham IT!

Active students will receive $5 (some students may receive additional funds from their schools).To initiate the $5 credit, just swipe for the first time at any print station. Credit good for 1 academic year.

Best Practices for Using Pharos Remote Print

Print requests must come from your Fordham email address or a guest Pharos account.
The following types of file formats can be printed by Pharos: Microsoft Word, Excel, Powerpoint, PDF, Images, Text (CSV, RTF, and TXT), and Visio.
Email your document as an attachment (not to exceed 50MB in size).
More than one attachment may be sent in a single email.
Logos, signatures, and pictures will print on separate pages. These items should be deleted prior to printing.
Black and white is the default print setting. Request color and double-sided printing at the Pharos Print portal.
Files may take a few minutes to appear in the print database after being uploaded or emailed.
Are you printing from Google drive? Download the file and open in a non-browser program such as Word or Adobe Reader. You can't print by sharing remoteprint@fordham.edu via your Google Drive.
