Student Printing, Copying
& Scanning
Printing, copying and scanning can be
done from the same multi-function
devices which you will find around the
Computer Centres, Libraries and Open
Access areas. Printers and plotters are
provided in areas where they are
required for certain courses.
The Institute operates a pay to print
system, which charges for printing on a
per page basis. You can print from any
computer in the Institute, from which
your document is sent to a central print
queue. You can then use the nearest
print device - there’s usually one nearby.
Enter your K number on the
touchscreen and a list of your current
print jobs will appear. Select the job you
wish to print and follow the onscreen
instructions. Printing is available in
black & white, colour, A4 and A3, but
costs vary accordingly, so if you don’t
need colour, then don’t print in colour
because it will cost more than black &
white! Also, keep in mind you’re being
charged by the page, so if you use
duplex (printing on both sides of the
page - this can be setup within the
application before you print) you’ll only
be charged for printing one page.
Photocopying can be done on any
of the devices in the Libraries.
Enter your student number on the
touch-screen and choose the
photocopying option.
To add credit to your printing
account you need to use the Online
Deposit facility that can be
accessed via the Student Portal.
This facility accepts major credit
cards and laser cards. If you do not
have a credit or debit card, you can
purchase a credit voucher to use on
the system. A list of shops where
these are available is on the
Student Portal.
You can scan documents to your
student U:Drive by entering your
student number on the device and
selecting the scanning option.
