As part of the university's Managed Print Cost Savings Initiative, all students, faculty and staff will need to enroll in the Pharos Secure Release system. To enroll, follow these steps.
ID Enrollment
Open the Pharos Secure Release app from the Windows System tray (or the macOS menu bar).
When the Welcome to Pharos Secure Release screen opens, click Login to continue.
When prompted, sign-in using your Buffalo State email address and password. Your browser will display a confirmation indicating successful authentication. You can close this message before continuing.
You should then see a screen displaying a system generated passcode for your account. This passcode is the unique user ID that will allow you to print without your Bengal ID Card. The first time you attempt to print after completing the enrollment process, you will need to enter this passcode at the printer. Click Continue.
You will also receive an email from no-reply@beacon.pharos.com with a subject of “Pharos Secure Release Passcode Reference” with the passcode for future reference.
