HuskyPrint for Students: Uploading and releasing documents at campus printers

Introduction

HuskyPrint is St. Cloud State University's campus-wide printing service, allowing students, faculty, and staff to upload and release documents from any location securely. 

Whether you're printing from a computer or mobile device, this guide walks you through the simple steps to upload your files, customize print settings, and release your documents at any HuskyPrint printer using either the mobile app or a secure passcode.

Students can visit HuskyTech for assistance. 

Instructions

Step 1: Upload Documents to the HuskyPrint Web Portal

  1. Log In
    Go to the HuskyPrint web portal and log in using your StarID in the format:
    YourStarID@go.minnstate.edu

  2. Upload Your Document

    • Click “Upload” in the upper-right corner of the portal.
      • To set the following, you must click "Finishing Options" before clicking submit
        • Number of copies
        • Color or black & white
        • Single-sided or duplex printing
    • Once options are set or if you are not setting options, click submit
  3. Optional: Modify Pages Before Uploading
    If you need to print only specific pages:

    • First, save your document as a PDF with only the desired pages.
    • Then upload that version to the portal.
  4. Submit Your Print Job
    After selecting your preferences, click “Submit”.
    Your job will be ready to release at any on-campus HuskyPrint printer.
