You’ve logged onto your shiny new laptop, typed your first document and now want to print…..
No printers are installed by default, but can easily be added.
Here are the options:
ONSITE
MyPrintColour is the usual printer everyone is familiar with, and is the easiest way to print with the most options.
To install, simply type: \\pcut-prd-ss01\myprintcolour into the search box on the Windows taskbar.
If you prefer you can install from the Company Portal app (just search for myprintcolour ).
If you encounter any errors during setup, install EduRoam from the Company Portal app, and try again.
AT HOME ( these work on site as well )
MobilityColour is a new web based method of printing, that allows you to print documents at home and collect them at work in the usual way.
To install, open the Company Portal app on your laptop, and search for Mobility Print.
If you’d like to install Mobility Print onto your personal computer you can download it from this link:
https:/mobprint.derby.ac.uk
There are a couple of limitations: you will be asked for your name and password every time you print, and prints will always come out double-sided.
Papercut@Derby.ac.uk allows you to attach documents to an email, which will be waiting to collect from any printer at work.
Nothing to install , just open email on any device (computer,tablet,phone) , attach a document to the mail, and send to papercut@derby.ac.uk.
Email printing is very flexible, but can be slow, and even fail if the attachment is too large or has content that is difficult to process. Most documents go through quickly, but if you don’t receive an acknowledgement within a couple of minutes, it’s likely there is a problem.
Don’t forget, prints are only stored for 24 hours before they get deleted.
