Printing for students

Students can print at the General Use Lab (EV2-1011) and the EV2/EV3-1809 corridor.

On our lab computers:

  • For B&W, select rs-public-bw-vx
  • For colour, select rs-public-colour-vx

Prints are double-sided by default. To print print single-sided, change the settings on the print dialog box.

For your security and to ensure you only print the jobs you really want, all print jobs need to be "released" before they are printed. To release a print job, just tap your WatCard or type your WatIAM credentials on the printer's touch screen console, and then print! Please ensure you have funds in your WatCard before printing.
