<hr />
<div>== Basic Requirements ==<br />
<br />
* You need photos in .jpg format named by student number, eg 123456.jpg .<br />
* Photos should be shrunk down and compressed (procedure below)<br />
<br />
== Software Required ==<br />
<br />
* Install David's Batch Processor for GIMP from here: http://members.ozemail.com.au/~hodsond/dbp.html . Extract the Windows EXE and place it in C:\Program Files\GIMP\lib\gimp\2.0\plug-ins<br />
* Install WinSCP or WinSCP Portable<br />
<br />
== Procedure ==<br />
<br />
* Extract the photos off of the photo CDs that are provided by each school<br />
<br />
=== Resizing Photos ===<br />
<br />
* Create an empty folder to store the resized photos<br />
* Make sure the batch process plugin is installed. It is located in MIS Share under ISO\gimp_batch_process<br />
* Run GIMP<br />
* Go to Filters -> Batch Process<br />
* On the Input tab, click the Add Files button<br />
* Select all of the photos to be resized and click the Add button (this takes a while), then click the Close button on the Add Image Files window<br />
* On the Resize tab, check "Enable" then select "Absolute" immediately underneath. Enter width 216 and height 288 with fit Inside<br />
* On the Rename tab, click the "Select Dir" button and choose your empty folder<br />
* On the Output tab, choose Format JPG, and ensure quality is set to 0.75<br />
* Click the Start button at the bottom of the window and wait until the resize is complete<br />
<br />
=== Uploading Photos ===<br />
<br />
* Run WinSCP<br />
* Create a new session to hostname: SDS1, username: your Linux username, password: your Linux password<br />
* Drag your resized photo directory across to your home directory on SDS1<br />
<br />
=== Importing Photos ===<br />
<br />
* Run PuTTY and connect via SSH to sds1<br />
* Create a new directory in the /var/www folder with the correct name. The format is:<br />
<br />
StudentPhotos2013-2014<br />
<br />
where you should only need to update the years. The command to create the directory is:<br />
<br />
sudo mkdir -p /var/www/StudentPhotos2013-2014<br />
<br />
* Copy the files into that directory:<br />
<br />
sudo cp ~/YourFolderName/*.jpg /var/www/StudentPhotos2013-2014/<br />
<br />
* Log into API<br />
* Go to Admin Menu -> Migration -> Photos import<br />
* Click the Import Photos button<br />
<br />
=== Notes ===<br />
<br />
* Each campus can be done individually. Since each student number is different, copying in additional photos to the StudentPhotos20xx-20yy will not overwrite any files that are present.<br />
* Retakes can be handled in exactly the same way. The new photos will overwrite the old photos. When you run the Photos import in SDS, it will overwrite their previous picture with their new picture.<br />
<br />
== Grade Photos ==<br />
<br />
* Take the photos sent by the campus and crop them down to a somewhere between a 30x10 to a 26x10 aspect ratio (eg: 3000x1000 or 2600x1000)<br />
* Save with quality 85 in Gimp or 8 in Photoshop with filename grade_csy.jpg (eg: 9_24.jpg for grade 9 in 2013-2014)<br />
* SCP using WinSCP to SDS1<br />
* SSH to SDS1 then run the following command:<br />
<br />
sudo cp 9_24.jpg /var/www/sites/sds.smus.ca/sds-filespace/grade_photos/<br />
<br />
* Test the ROA and ensure that everything fits correctly. You can do this by searching for a student, clicking Info, going to the Links and Reports tab, then clicking Record of Achievement. If the list of names doesn't look nice (eg: 5 columns into the fold between pages), you may need to crop the photo a little bit more.</div>Robert.przybylskihttps://secure.smus.ca/wiki/index.php?title=SMUS_Papercut&diff=25335SMUS Papercut2022-12-01T23:06:24Z<p>Robert.przybylski: /* How do I print to Papercut from... */</p>
<hr />
<div>== Frequently Asked Questions ==<br />
<br />
=== What is Papercut? ===<br />
<br />
Papercut allows us to simplify our printing structure considerably. This has several benefits, including:<br />
<br />
* "Find-me" printing. You do not have to select a printer when you send your print job. You can print to Papercut then release the job anywhere.<br />
* Print release. When you walk up to a Papercut printer, you just scan your staff or student card and the system does the rest. The job is released to the printer you're standing at, ensuring the security of the document you print. This also saves time, as you can print a whole bunch of different jobs, then go and release/collect them all at once.<br />
* Faster logon times. Instead of connecting to every printer that you could possibly print to when you log in, we only connect to Papercut. Everything else is done automatically when you print.<br />
* Consolidation of all of our separate print systems. You can print to Papercut from Windows, Mac, iOS, Chromebooks, and SDS. Regardless of how you print, you can walk up to any printer and release all of your jobs.<br />
<br />
=== How do I retrieve my print job? ===<br />
<br />
Once you have printed your job, walk up to any Papercut printer and scan your staff/student barcode at the print release station. Your job should print shortly afterwards. If it does not, you may not be in our system. Come down to the IT department and we'll make sure you're set up.<br />
<br />
=== What if I don't retrieve my print job? ===<br />
<br />
Jobs in the papercut queue expire after 4 hours. If you do not release your job after 4 hours, it will be deleted.<br />
<br />
=== How long should I wait before attempting to release my job? ===<br />
<br />
If you print a very large document, it may take a little while before your job is ready to be released. A good rule of thumb is that for every 250 pages you print, allow 1 minute. Then, when you release the job at a printer, allow 1 minute for every 500 pages you've printed before the printer begins warming up and printing your job.<br />
<br />
If you print multiple copies of the same document, add up all of the pages across all of the copies. For example, if you have a 4 page document and you print 50 copies, that's a total of 200 pages. Your job will be ready to print in a little under 1 minute. When you release your job, it may take up to 30 seconds before the printer lights up and begins printing.<br />
<br />
Cloudprint and Mac/iPad printing takes a bit longer because there are additional translation steps. Allow at least an extra 15 seconds before and after releasing these jobs.<br />
<br />
You can always check to see if your job is ready to release by signing into the [https://papercut.smus.ca/ Papercut site]. Sign in and go to "Jobs Pending Release" to see if your job is waiting.<br />
<br />
=== How do I put my barcode on my phone? ===<br />
<br />
Install an app called Stocard ([https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.stocard.stocard&hl=en Android], [https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/stocard-loyalty-cards-coupons/id444578884?mt=8 iOS]), then follow these directions:<br />
<br />
* In the Stocard app, tap + to add a new card<br />
* Choose Other Card<br />
* Enter name "SMUS"<br />
* Take a picture of the barcode on your staff/student card, or bring it up on another screen from [https://sds.smus.ca/index.php?next_page=printing/papercut_barcode.php SDS]<br />
* You can now get your barcode by running Stocard and tapping SMUS<br />
<br />
=== What if I don't have a student or staff card? ===<br />
<br />
If you are a student or staff member and you have lost your card or never got one, purchase one from the campus shop. You also get one for free if you get your photo taken at photo day.<br />
<br />
To use your phone to display your barcode, we recommend an app called [[SMUS_Papercut#How_do_I_put_my_barcode_on_my_phone.3F|Stocard]].<br />
<br />
Other personnel who want to print (houseparent spouses, contractors, etc.) need to get a barcode from the IT department. Come down and talk to us and we'll get you sorted out.<br />
<br />
=== Can I cancel a job? ===<br />
<br />
You can see your enqueued jobs at the [https://papercut.smus.ca/ Papercut site]. Sign in and go to "Jobs Pending Release" to see a list of jobs that will release the next time you scan your barcode. You can cancel any of your jobs from here, regardless of where they originated (iOS, Android, Cloudprint, Windows, etc.).<br />
<br />
=== Can I see my print history? ===<br />
<br />
You can see this at the [https://papercut.smus.ca/ Papercut site]. Sign in and go to "Recent Print Jobs" to see a list of jobs you have printed recently.<br />
<br />
=== What if I have a personal printer at my desk? ===<br />
<br />
If you have a desktop personal printer, you may not be able to use some Papercut printers. Once your personal printer has been disposed of, we will unlock the ability to use the rest of the Papercut printers.<br />
<br />
=== Where are Papercut printers located? ===<br />
<br />
All network printers are now Papercut printers.<br />
<br />
== Ricoh 7503 - Crothall Staff Workroom ==<br />
<br />
Because the Ricoh 7503 has additional features like stapling and punching, it is not compatible with the regular PaperCut print queue. In order to print to the Ricoh, you must choose "Ricoh_7503_PaperCut" as your print queue. You can go into the properties and set stapling, punching, and duplex settings. Once the job is queued, scan your barcode at either Ricoh 7503 print release station to release your job to that Ricoh copier.<br />
<br />
You cannot print to the "PaperCut" queue and release at the Ricoh printers. You also cannot print to the "Ricoh_7503_PaperCut" queue and release to any other printer.<br />
<br />
Airprint (from Mac and iOS), SDS, and Cloudprint (when printing from a Chromebook) also have separate queues for printing to the Ricoh printer.<br />
