Boosting quotas

In situations when a user or a group of users have reached their quota and urgently need to print, you can boost the quota by a specific number of pages or by a specific amount. Quotas can be boosted on two tabs of the MyQ Web Interface: the Quota Boosts main tab and the Users main tab. Records of the boosted quotas appear on the boost quota records list on the Quota Boosts main tab.
