This is a printing release station that has MAGic, a screen magnification tool installed. This software has been installed as part of the Accessibility resource provided for students who are visually impaired.
Locations
Pharos stations in the following location have been redesinged to include the MAGic software:
- GRC 105
- SCE 401
- SEL 2265
- SPHPI B34
- SSB 2300
Basic Usage
- Press 'CTRL'+'ALT'+'Z' to launch MAGic. Pharos stations run on rather old hardware, so it may take a while to launch
- use 'CTRL'+'-' to decrease the level of magnification. Use 'CTRL'+'=' to increase the level of magnification
- MAGic should be closed if nobody is actively using it. If the application's window gets hidden behind the Pharos screen, you can use ALT+TAB to switch to MAGic's window then ALT+F4 to close it.
- If you see Pharos stations that look "weird" in any of the labs that MAGic is installed in, it may be because MAGic is running with a very high level of magnification. Use 'CTRL'+'-' to decrease the level of magnification until you can see what you're doing, then close MAGic.
- Alternative, you can just reboot the machine
