Terminology
Mobility Print - A service that allows students to print wirelessly through their Android, Chromebook, macOS, iOS or Windows mobile device while on-campus and connected to the eduroam network. Mobility Print also manages each student's print allowance balance.
Print allowance - Each enrolled student is budgeted $30 per academic year to print classwork through the Mobility Print service and computer labs.
eduroam network - ECU's secure network. Devices must be onboarded. To print through the Pirate Print service, your mobile device must be connected to the eduroam network.
What is Pirate Print?
Every enrolled ECU student is allotted a $30 print allowance each academic year. Allocated from student technology fees, each time you print a class assignment through the Mobility Print service or computer lab printer, your balance declines accordingly. There is no charge to scan a document.
Classwork can be printed in a computer lab or wirelessly through your mobile device to one of several Print Mobility printers located in hallways and lobbies on campus. You must first connect to the eduroam network, then install one of the Print Mobility printers to your macOS, Windows or iOS device. Android and Chromebook users install the Mobility Print app from their device's app store.
Fall and Spring semesters' budget is $10. Summer Sessions I and II and/or the 11-week session are $2.50. Unused funds roll to the next semester until August, when any unused balance is lost (personal funds remain in the account).
Check your print balance, transactions and print history by logging in to a lab computer or the Pirate Print system. You can also add personal funds using a credit/debit card to the print balance if your quota is exhausted. There is no cash option available.
