To print jobs using ePrint you have a few options:
- Email Files to Print Directly
If you know the printer name you want to print to and are using your UBalt email account, this is the most direct way to send print jobs to printers from your computer or device. If you use this option, you do not have control over print options such as double sided printing, multiple copies, and page range. The complete file will print, single sided, one time.

- Address the email to eprint@ubalt.edu
- Enter the subject P: printer, where “printer” is the printer name. Click here for a list of lab printer names.
