Printing and Scanning Facilities

The College Library and Ann’s Court Computer Room have new Multi Function Devices (MFD) replacing the laser printers, the scanner, and the photocopier, whereas the Cripps Computer Room has a colour laser printer.

Ann's Court and Library Bridge: Printing to the MFDs

The default printer in both Ann's Court Computer Room and the Library bridge is now Selwyn_FindMe. When you print a document it will be held on a server and can be printed on one or other of the MFDs up to 3 days after submission.

You can print in colour or in monochrome and you can now print on A3 as well as A4, double or single sided.
Unless you specify otherwise, the print will be A4, monochrome, double-sided. Charges for use are recorded and added to your bill at the end of term.

To get your print, go to the MFD of choice, press OK on the LCD control panel and present your University card to the card reader on the right of the machine. (You can alternatively login manually, using your Raven login and password).

Select the work you want printed from the list of your print jobs which will appear on the screen

If the job fails for some reason, go to the other MFD and try again there.

Using an MFD as a photocopier

Go to one of the MFDs, press OK on the LCD control panel and then present your University card to the proximity reader on the right of the machine. Press Copier on the LCD control panel. Put your material for copying in the paper feed on the machine, or lift the lid and lay it on the scanner if it is a book etc. If you do not want A3 output make sure that nothing covers any part of the area which would be covered by an A3 sheet.

Identify whether the material to be copied is double sided

Select copying to single or double sided, A3, colour etc - see printed guide by the MFD

Press Go

Before you leave you should logout by pressing the Access key, then Logout on the touch screen.

Scanning to your @cam email address

The MFD can be used to scan material and email it to you at your university email address as an attachment.
Go to one of the MFDs press OK on the LCD control panel and identify yourself with your University card.

Printing in Cripps Court Computer Room

From Cripps Court you can print to one of the MFDs by choosing Selwyn_FindMe as the printer or you can use the printer in the room, an HP Laserjet 4650 which has two modes - BW (black and white) and Col (colour).

You can also print directly from your own PC; to do so you need to install a printer driver on your computer - follow the instructions for DS-Print PaperCut service at http://www.cam.ac.uk/cs/desktop-services/ds-print/individual/individual.html.
