Projects

With the project accounting feature activated, users can assign projects to print, copy and scan jobs directly on the embedded terminal screen. Projects can also be assigned to print jobs in the MyQ Desktop Client pop-up window, on the MyQ Web administrator interface, or in the MyQ mobile application.

For more information, check Projects in the MyQ Print Server guide.

Assigning Projects to Print Jobs

My Jobs

If a user wants to print an unassigned job from the My Jobs list, they are immediately redirected to the Project selection screen and have to select one of the available projects (or the Without project option, if printing without project is allowed) to be allowed to print it.

Jobs with projects assigned to them are immediately printed.

Print All

If all the jobs waiting in queue have projects already assigned by MyQ Desktop Client, MyQ Web administrator interface or the MyQ mobile application, printing starts immediately.

If there are any unassigned jobs, the user is redirected to the Project selection screen, immediately after tapping the Print All button. They have to select one of the available projects (or the Without project option, if printing without project is allowed) to be allowed to print the jobs. The selected project (or the Without project option) is assigned only to unassigned jobs; all other jobs keep their previously assigned projects.

Assigning Projects through Unlock Panel

After tapping Unlock Panel, the user is immediately redirected to the Project selection screen, where they need to select a project (or the Without project option). The project is then assigned to all jobs.

In case no project is assigned, the terminal will reject these jobs.

It is not possible to restrict users opening the panel screens even if they have not selected a project. In these cases, any panel job will be rejected during job approval and the user will be notified with the error message “no valid project selected”.
