How do I print wirelessly on-campus from my personal computer?

This article will describe how to print from a personal computer when on campus.

NOTE: The following is for printing from personal devices, including any Windows, Mac, iOS or Android devices.

To print from an on campus, SCU computer please visit this article for information on campus printing from University computers and in labs. 

For COLOUR PDFs and POWER POINTs .ppt, you only print them from the campus computers.

If when printing a PDF the online service times out - attempt to print the PDF as a PDF by selecting 'Print file...' under 'File' in the PDF viewer of your choice, and retry.

Web printing will work only if you are connected to the SCU Wifi network - wireless@SCU (Eduroam doesn't work)
