Multi-Function Devices for staff

Staff at Sussex are connected to a Multi-Function Device (MFD) print system called UoS_Secure_Print. These MFDs replace traditional printers and make printing easier, cheaper and more sustainable.

To print, select the printer UoS_Secure_Print from the list of printers in your application. This will send your print job to a queue, where it will remain for 14 hours unless you collect it from an MFD. To collect your print job, please follow the instructions below:

Collecting your print job

To use Multi-Function Devices (MFDs) to print or copy, you need to login with one of these methods:

1. your SALTO card

This is the easiest method to log in to an MFD - just tap your SALTO card on the reader.

Check your print ID Number

The first time you do this, you will be asked to enter your IT Services username (in the form ano123) and your password. After you have done this, you only need to tap your card on the reader to log in. You can then select Print All, or pick a particular job to print.

Which devices can print to UoS_Secure_Print?

Some computers can print directly to UoS_Secure_Print, while other computers will need to use the new Web Print service to send print jobs to the new MFD system.

You will need to know whether your device is managed and supported by IT Services. If you're not sure, check for a black-and-silver "Property of IT Services" sticker on your device. If it has one, this computer is managed by IT Services.

If your desktop computer was provided by the University but is not managed by IT Services, you will need to install the print queue onto your computer. Please see the installation guides below.
