Accessing Services

To log in to a University Printer, simply hold your ID card to the front of the printer, or log in using your university account name and password. If it’s the first time using your ID card you may need to sign in with your user details to associate this card to your print account.

You will see the Device Overview screen appear on the printer.

Printing

1. Open the document you wish to print, and select print within the program it opens in. This is usually within “File” > “Print”.
2. When selecting a printer, choose “FollowMe_Print on papercutapp01” for standard A4 and A3 prints. If you want to print something larger or use the wide format device please use “FollowMe_WideFormat on papercutapp01” instead.
   
   Please Note: Mac users should select “FollowMe_Macprint”.

Collecting Prints

1. If you selected “FollowMe_Print” or “FollowMe_Macprint” you will be able to collect your prints from any printer on campus. If you selected “FollowMe_WideFormat” you will need to collect your prints from one of the wide-format printers (plotters).
2. To collect your prints, find the relevant printer/plotter, then scan your ID card to sign in. You will see the Device Overview screen (below)
3. Select “Print all” to print all documents you’ve sent to the printer. If you select “Print release” on the touch screen, you can select which of your documents you would like to print before printing.

Printing via email

When printing via email, it’s important to first ensure your document is the correct size and format before printing.

For example, if you are aiming to print in A4, make sure your document size is set to A4.
