Please follow the link to instructions available at the ITS Help page for the new Mobility Print service.
This will enable you to add Federation University print queues to your personal device (laptop or tablet) by downloading the Papercut application and printer will be added as an option in Office 365.
Please go to Printing from a personal device for the full instructions.
Alternatively, log on to 'Papercut' by going to https://papercut.federation.edu.au/ Once authenticated go to the 'Submit Print' tab.
You have the ability to upload a print document, choose the output options and submit your document to a 'Papercut' print queue. Print jobs will sit in the queue for 12 hours before being deleted, so you do not have to release them right away at a printer.
How do I change from double-sided to single-side printing?
All Federation University printers default to double-sided (duplex) printing.
If you want to print a multi-page document as single-sided, you will need to either:
Use one of the University's student PC's as they have a full range of options under 'Print properties'.
Install the Mobility Print Service (directions above) on your own device and select 'single sided' option when printing your document.
The web-based Papercut print service does not offer single sided printing. All print jobs will default to double-sided. However, if you print multiple copies of a 1-page document, these will print on separate pages.
Free printing is available for the following students:
HDR (Higher Degree by Research) students – Masters & PhD
TAFE students
If you are eligible for free printing your student card will allow you to print or copy free of charge - you do not need to load money to Papercut.
If you are having difficulty printing free of charge you can submit a ticket through the ITS Service Hub: https://federation.service-now.com
