Xerox AltaLink C8055 MFP 
Error Notice 
This job was deleted due to access restrictions.
Deleted: User permissions restrict printing this job type.

Macs - Make sure you choose the Library Printers Preset (that's where your passcode is stored).

PCs - You need to enable Secure Print for every printer

  • Look for your NPS username.
  • If you used a Public Access computer, look for the workstation name. Example: pillar4a.
  • If you used your laptop, look for your Admin name.

Check that you're at the printer where you sent the job.  

For the Public Access computers, if you sent it to the default printer, make sure the passcode card matches the computer station.

For laptops, make sure you're on the ERN NPS wireless, not the Guest Wireless.

If you're printing something from webmail, Sakai, Python, or some other website, try downloading the document first and then printing, instead of printing from the browser.

As a workaround, try sending your job to a different printer, and let the Information Desk know. The printer may need to be restarted.

Yes, you can resend the job to another printer.  Printers 1-5 are on the 1st floor.  Printers 6 & 7 are on the 2nd floor.

  • Go to the next dropdown and choose Paper/Output or Color Options and make your selections

  • Remember to choose Library Printers in the Presets dropdown

 

PC

  • Make your selections from the Printing Options tab or the Image Options tab

Ask staff at the Information Desk to clear jams. Please don't try to clear jams yourself. Your job should resume printing after the jam or reason for pausing is cleared.

This sometimes happens with PDFs. Printer asks for different paper size than normal.

Solution:  Uncheck the "Choose paper source by PDF page size" box.
