There are two types of touch card printer at the College, HP LaserJet and HP PageWide (Inkjet). The main differences are around price and the print finish. The PageWide (Inkjet) printer is cheapest and used for everyday printing. The LaserJet prints professional quality documents with vivid colours and graphics.
Printing and photocopying costs are the same, but the scan to email service is free. A3 printing is double the price of A4 printing.
Undergraduate students are given an annual minimum print allowance of £25. This print allowance will renew at the start of each academic year. Postgraduate print allowance varies according to your department and staff are given an unlimited printing allowance.
