Q: How do I print black-and-white?
A: Make sure you opened your file from the Work In Progress drive. Do not print files from removable media, the "Drop Box" or files opened directly from the Web. Go to File > Print, choose a printer from the pull-down menu and click Print. You will be prompted to enter your NetID and password. After you verify the cost of the job and click OK/Print, your job will print directly to the chosen printer. PDF format is recommended. For more information, see Printing tip sheet (PDF).
