Martin Uhl 24.1 1 TUM Legic cards (Student Card / PersonalCard / Mensa Card) can be associated with an ITO account in order to enable card login at the printers' card readers.

Martin Uhl 24.1 7 In order to be able to easily and quickly use your Legic card at the printers, a preliminary registration might be necessary. Proceed as follows:
wikibot 1.1 8
Martin Uhl 24.1 9 **~1. Swipe the Legic card across the card reader**
Begüm Balat 10.1 10
Martin Uhl 24.1 11 Hold the card briefly on the card reader until you hear a beeping sound. (Please do **not** leave the card to lay on the reader)
wikibot 1.1 12

wikibot 1.1 14
Martin Uhl 24.1 15 You'll be then prompted to register the card.
wikibot 1.1 16
Martin Uhl 24.1 17 In case a dialog, different than the one depicted below, appears displaying your name in a box in the upper right corner, then your card has already been registered and you can skip the next steps.
wikibot 1.1 18
Martin Uhl 24.1 19 **In the event that the card reader blinks red or rejects the card**, then your card has already been linked to a different unauthorized account (the standard case with student accounts). In this case you should contact ITO (via e-mail at [[support@ito.cit.tum.de>>mailto:support@ito.cit.tum.de]]) so the incorrect pairing of the accounts can be rendered invalid.

Martin Uhl 24.1 25 Currently, registering is only possible with //"username"//@in.tum.de or //"username"//@ma.tum.de. Other accounts aren't supported at present.

Martin Uhl 24.1 31 Your name should be displayed in the upper right area. You'll now be able to log in with your card.

wikibot 1.1 34
Martin Uhl 24.1 35 We support three types of cards regarding registration on the printers:
Thomas Walter Erbesdobler 13.1 36
Martin Uhl 24.1 37 1. The new employee IDs
38 1. Guest copy cards (to be acquired at the ITO)
39 1. Studentenwerk's mensa cards
Thomas Walter Erbesdobler 13.1 40
Martin Uhl 24.1 41 (During printing the cards serve identification purposes. Your mensa credit remains untouched in the process.)
wikibot 1.1 42
Martin Uhl 24.1 43 In order for you to be able to log in, our system should know which card belongs to you. If it's not familiar with the card, you'll be prompted to carry out a one-off registration (see above).
wikibot 1.1 44
Martin Uhl 24.1 45 You can check whether you have a card registered on your name on [[ucentral>>https://ucentral.in.tum.de/cgi-bin/printman.cgi]]. You can check whether you have a card registered on your name on ucentral. If that's not the case, you can register it on the printers.
wikibot 1.1 46
Martin Uhl 24.1 47 = Deregistration =
wikibot 1.1 48
Martin Uhl 24.1 49 The deregistration (e.g. in case the card has been linked to the wrong account) can be carried out only by the ITO, since no such function is implemented on the printers.
wikibot 1.1 50
Martin Uhl 24.1 51 Please write an e-mail to the ITO ([[support@ito.cit.tum.de>>mailto:support@ito.cit.tum.de]]) in order to deregister your card by notifying us of the card's **Legic-ID and** the wrongly linked **ITO** username. In this example, the Legic-ID has been marked in red:

wikibot 1.1 56
Martin Uhl 24.1 57 == Card reader blinks red when the card is placed atop ==
wikibot 1.1 58
Martin Uhl 24.1 59 If the card reader simply blinks red upon laying the card on top of it without exhibiting any further behaviour, then the card has been registered on a different account, which isn't authorized to print. That's the standard case with all student accounts.
wikibot 1.1 60
Martin Uhl 24.1 61 **Solution**: Deregister the card at the ITO (see above) and/or inform your chair administrator/IT-Support so that a printing cost centre is allocated to your user account.
Thomas Walter Erbesdobler 13.1 62
Martin Uhl 24.1 63 == Another user is logged in when the card is laid on the reader ==
wikibot 1.1 64
Martin Uhl 24.1 65 This usually occurs due to following event sequence:
66
67 1. User lays their card on top of the reading device
68 1. Card hasn't been registered yet -> Printer displays a registration dialog
69 1. User doesn't know how to proceed and leaves without interrupting the login dialog
70 1. Second user approaches the printer and sees the login dialog
71 1. Second user enters their login credentials into the dialog -> printer registers the card of the first user on the account of the second
72
73 Furthermore, the Xerox-printers might detect an identification number of another card that is identical to the Legic-ID. This affects for example most credit cards. It's not guaranteed that all these numbers are allocated free of overlap; this means an unrelated card can be registered as well (also accidentally, e.g. even when a wallet containing different cards is held upon the card reader). If a Legic-Card with the same ID is laid onto the device, the user who's registered the other card, gets logged in instead.

75 **Solution**: deregister your card at the ITO (see above).
