All WAM labs and most other computer labs do not allow you to print unless you have a print account. There are 3 steps for setting up a Print Account. It is recommended that you do them in order. You must have a Student ID card, Directory ID, and password before activating your print account.

Terrapin Express is a pre-paid account that uses your student ID card like a debit card. Activate your account at 1109 South Campus Dining Hall, Mezzanine Level or at McKeldin Library. You will need a $20 minimum deposit by credit card, cash or check. In addition to working with your Print Account, you can use the account at various food vendors and vending machines on campus. You can also check your Terrapin Express account balance on-line.

Walk across campus to the OIT Help Desk in room 1400 of the Computer & Space Sciences Building. (301-405-1500). Print accounts must be obtained in person.

To place money on your Print Account you must transfer it from your Terrapin Express account. The on-line Laser print Cost Recovery Teller allows you to do this.
