Print documents via a personal device

Introduction

MobilePrint allows you to print on campus from your mobile devices to mono and colour MFPs (multi-functional printers). You can send documents directly to the MFP by email.

Printing From Your NTU Email

Step 1: Attach the document to an Email

Attach a document to an email and send it to one of the following addresses. Note the email system will have a 50 MB file size limit for attachments.

Step 2: Print the Job From a Release Station

Once your job is ready to print you will receive an email and you can go to release the job from one of our devices. Example email below:

1. Locate an MFP that supports the printing type you’ve chosen 
2. Activate the login screen
3. After logging in, users will see their print queue.
4. Click the available print balance to make sure the funds are available to print job.
5. Tick the job(s) you’d like to print and click “Print.” Then collect the printed document(s)
