How to Associate a New Vol State ID with Canon uniFLOW Printers

There are times when a Vol State ID needs to be replaced because it has been lost or broken. When this happens the new ID Card will need to be associated with Canon uniFLOW printers. 

Steps to associate your new card with Canon uniFLOW printers:

  1. Open a browser, navigate to the Vol State uniFLOW online login page. 
  2. Click "Continue with Vol State Student or Employee Login" to login. 
  3. Select "Dashboard" and under "Identities" you will click on "PIN".
    • This line is now highlighted for "PIN".
  4. When you click on "PIN" you will see an ellipsis (three horizontal dots) appear.
    • Click on the ellipsis and choose "Show PIN Code". 
      • Remember your 6 digit "PIN Code" as it will be needed in later steps. 
      • If you forget your 6 digit "PIN Code", it was previously sent to your student email from "noreply@volstate.us.uniflowonline.com" and titled "uniFLOW Online: uniFLOW Online PIN". 
  5. Select "Dashboard" and under "Identities" you will click on "Card Number".
    • This line is now highlighted for "Card Number".
    • The Value is your old 5 digit number from your old ID.
  6. When you click on "Card Number" you will see an ellipsis (...) appear.
    • Click on the ellipsis and choose "Delete Identity". 
  7. A "Delete Identity" box appears with the message "! Are you sure that you want to delete the item(s)?".
    • When you "Delete Identity" this will prevent you from viewing your "PIN Code" until you register your card again.
  8. Select "Delete" to continue. 
  9. Select "Dashboard" and under "Identities" you will notice that there is no longer a line to view "Card Number".
  10. Go to the Canon Printer and scan your card.
    • The message appears that advises "Unfortunately, the system doesn't know your card. To proceed, enter the Card Registration Code you received via email or your PIN code." 
  11. Enter the same 6 digit "PIN Code" from above.
    • A succesful card registration will have the "Confirm Card Registration" screen indicate on the right side of the touchscreen that "The entered code has been accepted. Please swipe your card again to complete the card registration process". 
      • The message appears at the top of the touch screen in a green box that advises "You can now scan your Vol State ID to login and release your print jobs."
  12. Press "Log Out" in the upper right of the printer screen once you are finished with your print job.
    • Always be sure to Log Off the printer after using it.
