Checking MavPrint Balance

Question

How can students check their MavPrint Balance? 

Overview

NOTE: New to MavPrint:

Students are still allocated $20 for printing each semester through MavPrint. Once this allocation is depleted, students can continue to print but the additional cost is added as an Arrears Balance amount, and that balance will be charged to the student’s university account at the end of the semester.

Check my MavPrint balance and available printing:

There are three ways to check your MavPrint balance:

1. Using MavPrint Mobile:
   1. Browse to MavPrint Mobile.
   2. Login using your StarID and Password
   3. Near the bottom, left hand side of the window, you will see your current MavPrint balance
2. When your MavPrint balance is $0.00, the description will turn to an “Arrears Balance. This is the balance that will be transferred to your University student account which you must pay at the end of the semester (if any). If the balance shows a negative Arrears Balance, this is the current total that you must pay at the end of the semester as reimbursement for MavPrint printing over $20.00 of allocated prints.

NOTE: Black and white prints are 5 cents per page. Color prints are 40 cents per page.

NOTE: when your Arrears Balance reaches -$50.00, printing will be suspended until this amount is paid partially or in full. You can pay off your Arrears Balance at the Wiecking Center Copy Shop located in room WC310.

3. Using the Pharos Print App:
   1. Download the Pharos Print app from the Android Play Store, or Apple App Store
