Printing and copying

Multifunction devices are available to students, staff and resource agreement holders across our campuses for printing, copying and scanning colour and black-and-white documents.

To use the devices, you need to log in with either your print card or your TUNI username and password. You can release your print jobs at any multifunction device on the campuses of Tampere University and Tampere University of Applied Sciences. Students pay for printing and copying but scanning is free of charge.
