Payments get processed usually in less than 10 minutes, after which you will receive a confirmation email. In case your payment wasn't processed correctly, and has not been assigned in ~2 days, please contact the printer managers: tisk@sin.cvut.cz, same for refunds and chargebacks.

The deposit system

The minimum deposit amount is 200CZK. Your printing account must have been funded to the minimum deposit amount at least once per deposit period.

The deposit period is one year, from 1st of January to the 31st of December (inclusive) in a given year.

How-to:

  1. Fund your printing account with at least 200CZK, which will activate it (you'll get an email)
  2. Print and recharge your account thought the deposit period (year) as you wish
  3. On the new year:
    1. If you have at least 200CZK on your printing account, it will stay activated.
    2. If you have less than 200CZK on your printing account, it will deactivate (you'll get an email), if you wish to reactivate it, recharge your account to at least 200CZK or ask for a refund by sending an email to tisk@sin.cvut.cz (see above).

We have introduced the deposit system to save on accounting costs, which helps to keep the printing as cheap as possible.

The deposit system is defined in the SIN-IP-2025/2: https://wiki.sin.cvut.cz/_media/verejne/dokumenty/predpisy/sin-ip-2025-02_zalohy.pdf (Czech).

MyQ System

Log in to the MyQ system on address https://print.sin.cvut.cz.

MyQ is a printing management system. It allows for submitting print jobs to the server. They are released after authentication on the physical printer (release-on-tap). It offers features such as print job submission and monitoring, user authentication, mobile printing and scanning.

You can log in to MyQ using your username (likely name.surname), or your own (SINIS) email and SINIS password on https://print.sin.cvut.cz.

You can submit, or monitor jobs, view spent and recharged credits on your printing account.

Printing

Web interface

You can submit a print job straight from the web interface. This is especially suitable for occasional printing.

After logging in, on homepage in section Jobs > Print file…

MyQ homepageMyQ print dialog

MyQ web interface can only be accessed from the CTU network.

Email attachment

Print jobs can also be submitted as attachments to an email sent to printer@sin.cvut.cz. The default settings are colour, simplex and no toner saving. This can be changed by adding the following keywords into the email's Subject field:

#color / #mono Colour / B&W printing
#simplex / #duplex One-sided / Two-Sided printing
#ecooff / #ecoon Economical / Non-economical toner usage

Job admission via email takes roughly 30 seconds. If an error occurs (e.g. unsupported format), the system returns an error message.

Printing over the network using IPPS

Print jobs can be submitted over the IPPS protocol (Internet printing protocol secured) on address ipps://print.sin.cvut.cz:443/queue/Default, but it's necessary to add a username that corresponds to your SINIS username (likely name.surname).

Adding a printer on Linux: (it's necessary to change the username!):

lpadmin -p Sincoolka-MyQ -E -v ipps://print.sin.cvut.cz:443/queue/Default -m everywhere;
mkdir ~/.cups 2>/dev/null; echo "User my.username" > ~/.cups/client.conf

And then reboot your computer.

Adding a printer on Windows using PowerShell (it's necessary to edit the username!):

Add-Printer -IppURL https://my.username@print.sin.cvut.cz:443/queue/Default

Execution takes up to several minutes. If you wish to use the graphical interface to set up a printer on WIndows, use https://uzivatelske.jmeno@print.sin.cvut.cz:443/queue/Default as the printer's address.

Network printing is only available from the CTU network.

Network printing using a client application

Printing using a client application is only available from the CTU network.

Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.myqsolution.myqx

iOS: Search and install MyQ X on the App Store.

To finish the print job, you need to sign in to the printer using your ISIC, or your SINIS credentials!

Scan

Scanning on both panel and feeder can be performed with a resolution of up to 600dpi. Feeder scan is prioritized if paper is present (a blue indicator light is on).

Scan to email

Scanning and sending file(s) to the user's (personal, or “school email” in SINIS) email. The system sends the scan as an attachment up to 24MB, otherwise, a download link on the MyQ system is sent instead. The system sends emails from the address printer@sin.cvut.cz - check the SPAM folder in case no email was received.

The default settings are a 200dpi PDF with JPEG compression, so the resulting file can easily be sent as an attachment. That corresponds to tens of coloured pages with text and colour graphics.

Using the printer

Logging in

You can log in to the printer using your SINIS username (usually “firstname.surname”, see in SINIS) and password, or by tapping your ISIC, if you have registered it.

How to register ISIC (or different RFID card, like the CTU card, Lítačka,…):

  1. Log in with your username and password
  2. Tap and “ID Card Registration” (bottom left)
  3. Tap the ISIC onto the reader (left to the printer's console)
  4. Next time, you can log in just by tapping your ISIC card on the reader
