Before You Begin
- A valid Stanford University ID card, Mobile Key, or SUNet ID and password are needed for printing.
- You must be connected to Stanford's physical network, Stanford WiFi, or VPN in order to submit print jobs via the Cardinal Print drivers.
Download and Install the Universal Cardinal Print Driver
The Cardinal Print driver is available for Windows and Mac operating systems. If you work, attend classes, or are a guest who has been given access to print at Stanford, download and install the driver on your device using the appropriate link below.
- Download Print Driver for Windows
- Download Print Driver for Mac - Personally owned
- Download Print Driver for Mac - Stanford University-owned/managed
Note: If you are using a Windows computer that is not issued by the university, your Cardinal Printer driver will appear as “CardinalPrintAuth” instead of “CardinalPrint.”
Ready to Print
Once you’ve installed the proper print driver, you can print and retrieve your materials from any Cardinal Print device by scanning your university ID or entering your SUNet ID and password.
Note: With the updated CardinalPrint printer driver, you'll notice the steps to adjust the printer settings are slightly different when printing from a device running macOS Ventura. If you need help, check out these step-by-step instructions.
