Computers in the Learning Commons connect to the University's network of Ricoh Multifunction Devices (MFDs), which combine printing, copying and scanning capabilities.

Students can send print jobs from any computer (including laptops on the Commons wireless network) to MFDs across the University network.

There are two dedicated colour printers in the Learning Commons. Both print on A4/A3.

Other MFD devices are available on the Ground, First and Second Floors of the Library.
