NOTE: These instructions are for the new Kyocera copiers that were installed in October of 2014 for use with newer versions of macOS. Older versions of macOS will have similar instructions, but certain fields may be named slightly differently. If you find something that is out of date, please submit a Help Desk ticket.

NOTE: For Mac OS X 10.14 Mojave Users follow steps below before continuing.

17. Select Print... from the File menu. 18. Select the newly installed Kyocera printer from the Printer list. 19. Click Show Details on the bottom to expand your printing options. 20. Click the TextEdit drop-down menu (or Layout drop-down menu for MacOS 10.14 Mojave users) and select the Print Panel menu option from the drop-down.

21. Print Panel page will open, open Settings. 22. Under the Job menu option, check the Job Accounting check box and enter preset.

23. Enter a copy code into the Account ID text box: 1220 - Students 2232 - Faculty & Staff

24. If you are a student using the 1220 code, you will be unable to print unless you follow these steps (staff can ignore): 1. Select the Imaging menu option. 2. Change the Mode from Full color to Black & White. Due to costs associated with color printing, students are not allowed to print in color without special permission. If you attempt to print in color, it WILL NOT print.

25. When you have changed the Job Accounting settings, go to the Presets drop-down menu and select Save current settings as a preset. Name this something to easily distinguish it, such as "Library Printer" and apply only to this printer. Click OK. 26. With your new preset selected, print a blank test page to ensure that the installation was a success. Whenever you print next, it will default to this new preset. If you change your printing preset in the future, make sure to change it back to this in order to use your saved job accounting preferences.

Note for macOS Mojave (10.14) Users:

First, download and install the driver labelled "Mac print driver" from the Kyocera Driver List, in the same way as noted in Step 1 above. (You’ll need this version for Mojave) Follow the steps above through Step 15. The following steps replace Step 17, and should be done before continuing to Step 18. Open a new document in TextEdit, go to the File Menu, then click Print.

In the system print dialog, click Save as PDF.

Wherever you saved the PDF, open with Adobe Reader or Acrobat (NOT Preview, it won’t work). Go to File → Print.

Ensure that the correct printer is selected from the drop down at the top of the window Click Printer, towards the bottom left. From here, the instructions above starting with Step 18 should work.
