When using the managed print system, you may be prompted to enter a passcode at the printer. This typically happens after receiving a new or replacement physical ID card.
Understanding Your Passcode
The passcode is a unique six-digit code assigned by the printing system.
It is not your Seton Hall username, password, or SHU ID number.
