# Scanning & Copying

## Setting up your ID

<p class="callout info">This part of the process is only relevant if this is your first time scanning on the campus copiers. If you have already done this, jump to [Scanning](#header-0f70 "Scanning") or [Copying](#header-5531 "Copying").</p>

1. Scan your ID on the copier's card scanner. 
    1. This should prompt the following menu to appear on the screen:

2. Enter the following credentials:
    - **Username**: `<span class="editor-theme-code"><College email address></span>`
    - **Password**: `<span class="editor-theme-code"><College Microsoft account password></span>`
        - For help, see [What is my Username and Password?](https://helpdesk.brynathyn.edu/books/accounts/page/what-is-my-username-and-password "What is my Username and Password?")
    
    <p class="callout info">Most copiers have a pull-out physical keyboard behind the display, which can be useful for this step.</p>
    
    
    - Once you have entered your login information a red notification will pop up under the log in button, which means you have entered your login information correctly.

3. Look for an email from **bac.noreply@brynathyn.edu** to your BAC address containing instructions on how to finish associating your card with the copiers. Follow the steps provided.<p class="callout danger">If you don’t see the email, make sure you check your junk/trash folder.</p>
