Spore print adaptation for PF tek?

I'm looking to begin my first endeavor into the world of indoor mushroom cultivation.
I am planning on using a mix of the PF Tek and other guides to start off. I would rather use a fruiting bin(Tupperware type), than the two-chambered box.
However, I have a question about inoculation. I have purchased a spore print, I will not be using the syringes. How should I go about using the print to inoculate my jars? Are the holes in the top of the jar necessary? Must the spores be inside of the cake, or can they lie on the top?
Forgive me if this question is asked too often, perhaps I missed some details pertaining to spore prints.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Well, you will have to make some syringes or figure out how you are going to get the DRY spores to germinate. Some people buy the spores because one spore print can make anywhere from 4-8 syringes. When you buy the syringe, you are really getting ripped off. People make syringes because the sterile water gets the spores to germinate.

hmm, I guess I was mistaken then. I thought that spore prints alone could be used for inoculation.

A spore print can make between one and more than 12 syringes. Avg print can make 12 syringes that are darker than the spore lab syringes (I love spore lab, dont get me wrong). Prints can be used straight for innoc, I knocked up some karo jars that way, and the very first tek I ever read said to do the same (scrape spores in to the BRF/VERM
