Resolution

  1. Log into Munis

Additional Information

  • If dpls_ls.ntp does not work correctly try using dpss_ls.ntp instead

    • dpls_ls.ntp means it will print duplex mode starting on the long side of the second page

    • dpss_ls.ntp means it will print in duplex mode starting on the short side of the second page

      • WARNING: the second page maybe upside down
