Print From Google Drive at a copier

  1. Make sure you have already set up Google Drive in the Printing Portal (see above) before attempting to print at the copier.
  2. Tap into the copier with your ID Card
  3. tap on the Google Drive icon
  4. Choose which folder to work on (Shared with me or My Drive) by tapping on the appropriate tab. Wait until the spinning loading icon (and green loading bar if it appears) has disappeared before tapping anything else.
  5. Once the list is loaded navigate through the list to the appropriate folder/files you wish to print.
  6. Tap on each file you want to print.
    1. the following file formats have been tested and found to work:
      1. Office: Word, Excel, Powerpoint
      2. Images: JPG, PNG
      3. PDF
      4. native Google files: Docs, Sheets, Slides and Drawings!!
  7. Once you have the files selected tap on the Print button
  8. You will then be presented with some limited options to change
    1. single or double sided, colour or black and white, output paper size and quantity (number of copies)
    2. the settings apply to all the documents you currently have selected
    3. I would encourage you to select the paper output size but it is optional
  9. click Print and the selected files will be printed
  10. Large files will take longer to download, process and print.
