Printing options on the campus

The Konica printers have now been taken over by stuvus as part of the kopier[lädle]! See further information below.

Do you need to print out a summary, a worksheet, a handout or a text? Or hand in your term paper, thesis or technical drawing in printed form?
There are various printers on both campuses where you can print independently.

Is the document a little longer or should it be properly bound? Then go to the kopier[lädle] of stuvus on the Vaihingen campus. Here you will also find different paper thicknesses, different bindings and other stationery.

Printer control

You will need the printer name (found at the top) to release prints directly from the print website). You can insert USB sticks at the top left of the display.

  1. Under ‘Print release’ you can release the prints that you have sent via WebPrint or Mobility Print on this device. In particular, you can also specify further configurations here, such as greyscale/colour and double-sided printing.
  2. Under ‘Device functions’ you can use the native device functions. This includes copying, printing from USB devices and scanning to USB devices.
  3. Under ‘Scan’ you can send scans directly to your Papercut account email. If this option is not displayed, you will need to verify your email address.
  4. Here you can release all prints at once in the same way as point one.

Printing

Always make sure you have enough credit before printing. If not, you can top it up as described above.

If you want to print in grayscale instead of color for the reduced price, always select this explicitly on the printer when approving the print job. If the PDF files are incorrectly formatted or even just a single pixel of color, they will otherwise be printed in color and billed accordingly.
