Web print is an online feature that will hold your document on a server to print within the next 24 hours from any public printer on campus. Once you arrive at the printer of your choice, you release your print job by either tapping your ID card or manually entering your Drake ID and password on the printer's touch screen. Web Print can print from Microsoft Excel, Word, and PowerPoint along with PDF and other image formats.
