Pharos is the preferred printing system at Baskin Engineering. Pharos allows you to print to any of the dozens of UCSC Copier Program managed printers installed throughout campus. Pharos holds your print job for 48 hours until you walk up to a printer keeping your documents secure.
Once you print to Pharos, you can walk up to any Pharos device anywhere on campus and log in with your CruzID and the last four digits of your employee ID (found in UCPath) or student ID number. Once logged in, you can print your jobs, make copies, or scan documents.
Staff and Faculty - Pharos printing requires an account and a funding source (FOAPAL) associated with it. If you do not have one, please email help@soe.ucsc.edu with your name, supervisor, one or more FOAPALs for printing charges, and your employee ID number found in UCPath.
Undergraduate and Graduate students - personal Pharos accounts are automatically generated every Fall quarter. You will need to submit a request in order to charge print jobs to an administrative or lab/research FOAPAL rather than your personal account.
