MFDs and printers

All printing on campus is via networked multi function devices (MFDs) and printers.

When printing on campus, you send your output to a holding queue. You can then print from this queue at any MFD or printer. To print your output, use your ID card or login to the printer with your username and password.

• MFDs are capable of copying and scanning to email, as well as printing selected items from your print queue. Default settings are double-sided, black and white A4 printing. Some MFDs also offer A3 and colour printing.
  
  
• Printers print ALL of the items from your print queue. Default settings are double-sided, black and white A4 printing. Some printers also offer colour print options.
