9. While still on your school's wifi network, in a new browser window (e.g. Google Chrome) enter the following to access your printer's admin site: 

http://<IP address of the machine>

 

For example:

Kermit's website: http://10.57.65.218/ 

Pepe's website: http://10.57.65.217/

11. One logged in, upload the saved PDF into the Hold section.

In this example, it was saved in the Downloads folder:

The file is now sitting (paused) in the Hold Jobs section

 

12. Return to the Ponder download page from step 7. 

Look at the "staple every _ pages" field. Note the number.

In this example, it is 6. As in each student packet of this PPQ is 6 pages long (3 pages double sided).

16. Note that you can see the job status in the bottom section:

Sending a job: For this example, a PDF with 558 pages took 2-3 minutes for the copier to receive

Printing a job: For this example, a PDF with 558 pages took 5-6 minutes for the copier to print

17. Once printing is complete, in the Hold section:

Right click over the file and choose Delete. In the pop-up, click Yes.

This is because the copier has a limited memory/disk space so deleting no longer used files helps the copier performance remain the same.

18. You can also delete the file you saved in your computer. 

In this example, the file in the Downloads folder was deleted:

19. Repeat these steps for other exams as needed.
