Printing, WIFI, and Studyroom Instructions
Downloading and Installing STU Print Drivers
St. Thomas University students, faculty, and staff can print from our computer labs as well as from their personal computers while on campus. Students and faculty receive $75.00 in printing credit each
semester to use toward campus printing services.
Before printing from your personal computer, you will need to download and install the appropriate STU print driver for your device.
Download the Print Driver
- Log on to the STU_SECURE Wi-fi.
- Log in to your MyBobcat Portal.
- Scroll down to the IT Service Desk section.
- Scroll to the far right and select the Resources tab.
- Select either PC Print Drivers or Mac Print Drivers, depending on your computer.
- Locate the correct print driver for your device and download it.
PC Users
Your computer may display a security notification or block the driver from downloading or installing.
If this occurs, look for the More Options button on the notification and select the option to Allow Anyway to continue with the installation.
Mac Users
After installing the print driver, you may need to manually enable double-sided printing.
To enable double-sided printing:
- Open your computer's Settings.
- Navigate to Printers & Scanners.
- Select the STU Printer.
- Select Options.
- Enable Duplexer.
Once Duplexer is enabled, double-sided printing will be available.
Sending Your Document to Print
You are now ready to print! Print your document as you normally would. After sending the file to the printer, a login box will appear.
Enter the following information:
- Username: The first letter of your first name followed by your STU ID number.
- Password: The same password you use for MyBobcat.
For example, if your name begins with J and your STU ID number is 123456, your username would be J123456.
Releasing Your Print Job
After submitting your document, go to any STU printer on campus. You can access your print job in one of two ways:
Using Your STU ID:
Tap your STU ID card on the square card reader located on the right-hand side of the printer.
Logging In Manually:
Enter the first letter of your name followed by your STU ID number as your username. Your password is the same password you use for MyBobcat.
Once you are logged in, select your print job and release it from the printer.
You're all set and ready to print!

Online Study Rooms Guide
St. Thomas University provides study rooms for currently enrolled students working in groups of two or more. Study rooms can be reserved online in advance. The video below provides a step-by-step guide on how to reserve a study room.
Before You Book
Please have the following ready:
- At least two group members.
- An STU ID for each group member.
- Your MyBobcat username and password.
Please note: An online reservation is not confirmed until your group checks in at the Circulation Desk.
1. Go to the Group Study Rooms Page
Visit lawlibrary.stu.edu/availability.
You can also access the reservation page through the Law Library website by selecting Group Study Rooms.
2. Choose When You Would Like to Book
Group study rooms are available for same-day reservations only. Advance reservations cannot be made for future dates.
When the library opens, available reservations may be made for time slots up to 12:00 PM. After 12:00 PM, available time slots for the remainder of the day may be reserved.
Booking earlier in the day does not reserve a room for the entire day.
3. Select an Available Time Slot
Use the reservation calendar to find an available study room and time.
Available time slots appear in light green. Once selected, the time slots will appear in dark green.
Select the amount of time you would like to reserve. Four 30-minute time blocks equal a two-hour reservation.
4. Sign In and Request Your Booking
Once you have selected your room and time, review the reservation information and sign in using your MyBobcat username and password.
Select Request Booking to submit your reservation.
Remember, your reservation is not final until your group checks in at the Circulation Desk.
How Long Can I Use a Study Room?
Study rooms may be reserved for two hours at a time.
If the room is still available, your group may renew the reservation up to two additional times, allowing for a maximum of six hours in one day.
Renewals depend on the room remaining available for use.
