Send
We offer multiple options for sending files to print at the library. You can print from a library computer, and our mobile printing service allows you to send prints from your device via app, web portal, or email.
Pick Up
Visit the library during our open hours to retrieve your print job. Our print station is located in the Adult Services Business Center. You will need a remote print confirmation code or card number associated with a computer session to release the print.
Pay
Prints cost $0.10 per page, and charges must be paid in full before library staff can release your print pages. You may pay by cash, credit/debit (Mastercard or Visa), Apple Pay, or Samsung Pay.
Upload Files by Web
Visit our remote printing portal to upload documents directly from your computer or mobile device. Add files and printing instructions.
You will set a user name or ID number for your print. Be sure to keep this information–you’ll need that code to release your print job.
Send Via Email
Attach your file(s) to an email message and send that directly to our printer. Set the “to” address in the email based on the kind of print:
- For black and white prints: send to bw@cslibrary.org
- For color prints: send to color@cslibrary.org
You will receive a confirmation email that includes an access code that you’ll use to release your job at our print station.
Use the Mobile App
Download the ePRINTit SaaS app for your device. During setup, if you allow location access, you can more quickly find Carol Stream Library (or any other nearby participating location). Then, use the app to upload documents and provide instructions.
You will set a user name or ID number for your print. Be sure to keep this information–you’ll need that code to release your print job.
Printing Guidelines
- Though you can send print jobs at any time, you may only retrieve prints sent via the ePRINTit service when the library is open.
- Once submitted, your print will remain in the queue for 24 hours; any print jobs left unclaimed after that point are deleted and will need to be sent again.
- There is a 200-page print maximum per print submission.
- Your print job will require username or library card number/guest pass number, and payment before the job can be printed.
