For observation time, enter the time in EDT + 4 hours (because the time has to be entered in UTC). For example, for October 16 10pm, enter 2014-10-17 02:00:00 in the time box.
For field of view, give 1200 arcseconds. Observatory: you can leave it as the "Earth's center". You can also give Princeton's longitude and latitude. No need to select rings for Jupiter (you won't see them).
Then click "render diagram", and download the PDF. Here is an example for Jupiter, and another one for Saturn (the latter is for our star party, 2014 Sep 17).
Jupiter moon eclipses and occultations. Comes with a good explanation of these events.
