Question

How do I print to a YSU printer from personally-owned devices?

Answer


UPDATE 2/25/2026: YSU is in the process of changing printer vendors, from Comdoc with Xerox printers to DME (Donnellon McCarthy Enterprises) with Sharp printers. The new printer queues for the Sharp Printers will be named Employee_BYOD_Print and Student_BYOD_Print and will start showing up March 9th, 2026.

During this transition, both print queues may be required depending on your location and the progress of swapping printers. 

  • If you are using an Existing Xerox Printer
    • Select Student_BYOD_FindMe or Employee_BYOD_Findme depending on your role.
      ​​​​​​​
  • If you are using a New Sharp Printer
    • ​​​​​​​Select Student_BYOD_Print or Employee_BYOD_Print depending on your role.

⚠️ For all devices, you must be connected to YSU_WiFi wireless (Not guest). ⚠️
