We sometimes receive questions about trouble with the ScombZ LMS and community when using the Quizzes function.

e.g., quizzes that are supposed to be submitted receive zero points, go blank during screen transitions, etc.

 
In order to prevent any trouble during the quizzes Please tell students to pay attention to the following points.

 
Point 1: Do not take the quizzes in multiple windows.

-Do not take the quiz on more than one terminal

-Do not take the quiz in multiple tabs.

-Perform the quiz in the window that appears when you click the "Start Quiz" button.

 
Point 2: Avoid taking the test during the time when maintenance is being performed.

-Check to see if there is a maintenance notice on the screen before logging in to ScombZ.

Point 3: Please do not use the browser's back button or other browser functions during the quizzes.

 
Point 4: After clicking the "Confirm" button, be sure to click the "Submit" button to submit the quiz. Please wait until you see the message "Submittion is completed".

 
Point 5: After submitting your answers, please check each time to make sure that your answers were submitted correctly.

You can check by selecting "Display result" from the tricolon on the right side of the quiz title.

A Kyocera support engineer has contacted us about a problem that occurs when opening and printing a PDF file in Edge, regardless of the Kyocera model.

When printing a PDF file from an office terminal using Edge, a system error occurs and the printer warns to restart.

When printing from a student/faculty/staff terminal, the error occurs when the card is held up.

• Please print PDF without using Edge.
  Download the PDF, open it with Acrobat, etc., and print it.
  Use a web browser other than Edge.

• In case of failure, the error will not be avoided unless the job is deleted.

  
  【In case of office printer】

  (1) Cancel the data stored in the queue.
  Windows menu > Settings > Devices > Printers and Scanners > Click printer name > Open Queue
  Right-click on the name of a file that has not been printed and "Cancel".

  (2) Restart the Kyocera printer.

   

  【For printers that require a student/staff ID card to be held over the printer】

  Please contact the Information Center for Academic Affairs to delete the job.

   

Thank you for your cooperation.
