Abstract The demand for efficient, accessible, and secure printing services has significantly increased in academic institutions. Traditional printing shops face several operational challenges including long queues, outdated systems, and security concerns which cause inconvenience but also lead to inefficiencies. This study aimed to design and develop My-Print: Smart Printing System using a microcontroller to provide accessible, convenient, and automated printing services within a university campus. Specifically, it sought to identify the problems encountered by students and faculty in off-campus printing shops, define the technical design of the My-Print system, determine implementation considerations, and evaluate user acceptance based on the Technology Acceptance Model. The study utilized a developmental design guided by the ADDIE model and a quantitative approach to assess system usability and acceptance. The results revealed that the developed My-Print system integrates core functionalities such as file uploading, print customization, cashless payment, and administrative controls. The developed My-Print System provides accessible, convenient, and automated printing. Deployment analysis recommended 8 to 20 units across the entire campus. User evaluation yielded a grand mean of 3.56, interpreted as very satisfied, with statistically significant correlations among TAM variables. The results affirm the system's viability and acceptance within a large academic institution.
