Submitting a Print Job via Email

Last modified 11/12/2024

Users may submit their print jobs via email and pick them up at a uPrint release station. To send your print jobs, do the following:

Email a Print Job

Send an email to uPrint@ilstu.edu with the items you are wanting to print. There are two different methods to submit a job:

  1. Attach documents.
  2. Use the body of the email.

Submitted jobs will be handled in the following ways:

If there is an attachment(s), each item will be created as separate print jobs. If there are no attachments, the body of your email will be created as a print job.

By default, all jobs will be Black & White / Single-Sided and can be changed at the print release station or website.

Job Processing

After sending an email to the uPrint@ilstu.edu email address with the documents you are wanting to print, you will receive a confirmation email when your print jobs are ready to release (Figure 1):
