As part of the university's
Managed Print Cost Savings Initiative, all students, faculty and staff will need to enroll in Pharos Print (the "Managed Print System") . The is a one-time setup that
links your campus ID card and provides you a personal
passcode for the system. To enroll from Pharos Cloud, follow these steps.
ID Enrollment via Pharos Cloud
- Sign-in to the Pharos user portal in a browser with your Buffalo State Network credentials.
- Click on the three-line ("hamburger") menu in the upper right and select Passcode. Then, click Generate to generate your Pharos passcode.
- Please write down this passcode for future reference. You'll be asked to enter this code the first time you release a print at a Managed Print Services location. After this one-time setup, you can release prints by either tapping your Bengal ID card or entering your passcode on the printer's touchscreen.
You will also receive a confirmation email from no-reply@beacon.pharos.com with a subject line “Pharos Secure Release Passcode Reference." As long as you noted your passcode in the previous step, this message lets you know you've finished the setup process.
