Printing

Follow-you, specialised and paying for printing

The print service

The University has a large number of Ricoh Multi Functional Devices (MFDs) which perform the vast majority of the printing of A3, A4 black & white and colour printing.

Undergraduate and taught postgraduate students must have sufficient print credit before printing. Staff and the majority of postgraduate research students can print without credit – costs are recharged to their department.

If you are altering the layout of your office or need to make changes to make MFDs more accessible to you and your colleagues, please note that it is vital that MFDs are not moved without first contacting procurement@liverpool.ac.uk. For further information how moving printers and the essential procedure you need to follow, please review How do I move a printer?

Print Anywhere

You can send your work to print from wherever you are working either on the Managed Windows Service (MWS), on a laptop, from home, by email and over the internet  - your printing can be released from any of the Ricoh machines using your smart card using the Follow-You service. 

Photocopy and scan

As well as printing, the Ricoh MFDs can photocopy and also scan. The Scanto-Me option works either by emailing the scanned document to your University email account or saving it directly to your M: drive - there is no charge for scanning and your account does not need to be in credit to scan.
