This brief guide tells you how to use them to make photocopies.

There are 7 combined printer / copiers in the LRC - one on the

ground floor and six in the e-Learning Centre.

Exactly what do you need to copy?

• Before you go and log on to the copier decide what you need to copy.

• If you are going to copy several things from different magazines or journals, use bookmarks or slips of paper to mark each item.

• This will make it easier for you to find them as you make your copies.

Logging onto a Printer 1

• On the touch screen press Username and enter your student number, then press OK.

• Now press Password and enter your password and press OK.

Logging onto a Printer 2

• With your username and password entered, press the login button.

• After a few seconds you will be shown the photocopier controls on the touch screen.
