If your Smart Printer has a built-in touchscreen the card reader will be attached to the top or front of the Smart Printer.

If your Smart Printer has a mounted (moveable) touchscreen the card reader will be been installed to the left of it.

Problems with your ID card

If your ID card doesn't work, or works intermittently, you can get a replacement card on campus. Where you get this will depend on whether you are staff or a student:

If you experience problems with your card after it's been replaced, contact the IT Service Desk on 2253.

Capital letters and symbols

You will see either an upper arrow key  or a Shift key on your screen. Use this to access capital letters and symbols.

• If you use the upper arrow key , the keyboard will change back to lower case once you’ve typed a letter
• If you use the Shift key, this will apply caps lock until you press Shift a second time to set it back to lower case

Automatic logout

You will be automatically logged out from the Smart Printer after 60 seconds if there is no activity on the touchscreen. To stay logged in for longer tap the More option within 60 seconds.

Automatic logout keeps the service secure for other users and prevents students being charged for someone else’s copying if they forget to log out.
