The printer queues in the Faculty of Environment have been moved over to the Information Systems & Technology (IST) central print server queue called printsrv. To set up your computer to print to a departmental or unit printer, please follow the instructions for PCs and Mac computers below.
Note: These instructions are only for setting up faculty or staff computers on campus to the department printers - not the lab printers.
If you are off-campus, make sure you have installed the University's virtual private network (VPN).
All departments within the Faculty of Environment have been set up with a networked Ricoh multifunction printer. The supplies for these printers can be ordered through W Print.
Technical issues should be reported by raising a request to IST.
To support green IT initiatives, ETIS will not support any personal home/office printers.
