We have all-in-one devices capable of printing, photocopying and scanning located in our study spaces, libraries and student accommodation.

How to print

  • If you are printing from your own device, you may need to connect it to the FollowMe printing network first.
  • We also have a webprint option available, where documents can be uploaded directly to the network. To access this, visit papercut.auckland.ac.nz.
  • All University PCs are already connected to the FollowMe network. You can log in and print from these any time you like.
  1. Once you’ve connected to the network, select 'FollowMe B&W' or 'FollowMe Colour' as your printing queue.
  2. Then, locate your nearest printer and log in by either tapping your Campus Card on the card sensor, or using the touchscreen to enter your login details. 
  3. Click 'print-release' to collect your document. 

Instructions for printing on different personal devices:

Not all printers in the main study spaces are able to print in both black and white, and colour. Colour printers are clearly marked with signage.
