Printing Facilities

Both libraries provide printing facilities, although the mode of delivery currently differs across sites:

North Hanover Street Library

The print release station within the library handles printing from both the library computers and those within the Flexible Learning Area. The following charges apply:

Black/white prints: 5p per A4 print or 10p per A3 print

Colour prints: 50p per A4 print or £1 per A3 print

(These rates are slightly reduced when purchasing a £4.50 print release card.)

To use the printers you will need to buy print release cards from the library issue desk. When your credits are used up, simply dispose of the card and purchase a new one. The card readers will not accept cards purchased at other institutions.

There are two denominations available:

£1 = 20 units = 20 black/white or 2 colour A4 prints

£4.50 = 100 units = 100 black/white or 10 A4 colour prints

To use the print release station:

Insert your card into the card reader - your remaining credits will be shown

Find your document in the list of outstanding jobs on the print release screen

Double click the document and follow the on-screen instructions

Credits will be deducted from your card according to the number of prints you make and your remaining credits will be shown

Cathedral Street Library

Cathedral Street students are allocated printer credits at the beginning of each academic year, with additional credits purchased from the library issue desk. These will be added to your account on presentation of a receipt to the ICT Support Officer.

Remember that library staff are always happy to help if you are unsure how to use the printers or print release stations at either library.
