Cedarville University’s new wireless printing service, called CedarPrint, allows students, faculty, and staff to print from a laptop or residence hall computer to a university printer via on-campus print stations.

To view this information in PDF form, please see the CedarPrint Wireless Printing Quick Start Guide.

If you are printing from a Windows computer, installing CedarPrint is a two step process. First, you must install a client called Papercut, then you must install the printer to your laptop.

If you are printing from a Mac, then installing CedarPrint is only a one step process. You do not have to set up the printer on a Mac, it will be automatically installed when you complete step 1. You do not need to complete step 2 if you are using a Mac.
