All general IT areas within the University will have a Multi-functional Device (MFD) that provides self-service print, copy and scan facilities. Locations within the Library can be found on this floor plan. Most MFDs provide A3 and A4 size copies as well as reduction, enlargement and colour copy facilities.
The MFDs are activated by your Student ID card and charges will be deducted from your printing/photocopying quota. £10 is credited automatically to your quota each semester. If extra quota is needed there are two preferred options:
- self-service kiosk adjacent to the Library Help Desk using your Student ID card.
- and online payments using the desktop icon
or click here (on campus only).
It is NOT current policy to refund balances at the end of academic years.
Checking Your Printing/Photocopying Balance
Please ensure you have enough money in your account before sending your work to print. You can check your print/photocopy balance using the desktop icon or the self-service kiosk.
