How it works:

  1. Like the guest account, guest users get a temporary printing account.
    a. The username and password will be the same as the computer login.
  2. To load funds to the temporary account, go to the TitanCard Desk with the guest account print out.
    a. If you have a copy card with funds, you can use that to add money to your temporary printing account.
  3. TitanCard will load funds to the temporary printing account using the information from the print out.
  4. If there are any unused funds left on the temporary printing account, you must go to the TitanCard desk to transfer funds to a copy card, 30 minutes before the TitanCard desk closes.
    a. If you fail to do this, any unused funds will be forfeited to the University.
    b. If you have an existing copy card you can have the funds moved on to it, you don't have to purchase one each time.
