Printing on the Law Library's Computers

The Law Library has two networked laser printers. To use a network printer, students must have active accounts on our network with funds on deposit to use the network printer. Applications for accounts are available at the Circulation desk in the Law Library or in room 316. Along with your application you must deposit a minimum of $5 into a printer account (similar to purchasing a photocopy card). Funds may be deposited at the Circulation office. If you have money in a printer account, you will then be able to print to either laser printer from any lab computer in the Law Library. Funds may be deposited at the Circulation office or Reference Desk.

Please check your account balances early if you plan to use the printing system late at night or on weekends. The Circulation office is not open when the library is staffed only by student workers. Please read the information on How to Use Network Printing and the Printer Accounting Server (PAS) Policy.

Logon to the Law Library's Computers with Your Personal Account User Name

After you have filled out and signed an Application for a Login Account form, you will receive a confirmation form that will list your user name and temporary password when your account is activated.
Next, logon to the network using your user name and temporary password.

*To Logon to the Network.*
	Turn on the computer and wait until you get the Begin Logon box which reads, Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to log on, then press *Ctrl + Alt + Delete.* A Logon Information box will appear. Go To Step 3. If the computer is already logged onto the network, and you see the Desktop screen, press *Ctrl + Alt + Delete* and a Windows NT Security box will appear. You must log out of a foreign account before you can log in on your personal account user name. You will be unable to print to the network if you are logged in as the generic user LAW. Click on Logoff. A Logoff Windows NT box will appear. Click OK. Then press *Ctrl + Alt + Delete* again to get the Logon Information box. Now, follow the remaining steps on this handout. Make sure the CAPS LOCK is not on. Type in your user name that you received when you opened your network account in the User Name: box (ex.: aclearma). Then type in the temporary password that you received when you opened your network account. Type it in the Password: box (ex.: xyzz123). NOTE: The user name and password are case-sensitive, so type your user name and passwords exactly how they are. Case sensitive means the computer can determine the difference between a lowercase and uppercase letter. For example, the computer sees APPLE and apple as two different words. You will get a message that states, You are required to change your password at first logon. Click OK. A Change Password box will appear. Type a new password in the New Password: box (ex.: 57chevy). NOTE: It is recommended to use both numbers and letters in your password. Your new password must be at least 5 characters and no more than 15. You will be asked to change your password in 60 days. Write down your new password and keep it in a safe place. Do not let others use your password. Once you have typed your new password in the New Password: box, you must retype it in the Confirm New Password: box. Click OK or press ENTER. A Change Password box will appear stating, Your password has been changed. Click OK. IMPORTANT NOTE: If you mistype your password 5 times within 30 minutes, you will be locked out of the network for 45 minutes. Generally, before 8 p.m. someone can reset your account. To do so, go to the Circulation or Reference desk and ask for assistance. You will then see the Windows Desktop screen. When you have finished your session on the computer, it is *IMPERATIVE* that you logoff from the computer so no one can print from your individual network account. NOTE: You will be held responsible for any loss in your network printing balance or any improper action by you or anyone using you account which violates the University of Mississippi's Computer Usage Policy.
*To Logoff from your session.*
	To Logoff from your session, press *Ctrl + Alt + Delete* and a Windows NT Security box will appear. Click on Logoff. A Logoff Windows NT box will appear, click OK.
