A semester-based print quota is allocated to students enrolled in our Level 2, 3, 4, 7 and 8 units.

• 25 pages or $2.75 per Level 2 and 3 unit
• 50 pages or $5.50 per Level 4 unit
• 100 pages or $11.00 for Level 7 and 8 units (for Master's by course)

Any unused quota will not roll over to next semester. New quota will be set at the beginning of each semester based on your enrolment data. Once you have used up your free quota you will need to pay if you want to print more before new quota is allocated.

The cost of A4 printing per page is 11 cents (Incl. GST) if you pay using your campus card. Transaction money can be added to your campus card through the Unicard autoloaders located in the University libraries.

The lab printers are accessible to both lab computers and students personal laptops, provided you have set up one or more network printers properly on your laptop.

Printing multiple pages to the one sheet of paper will incur the total multiple page cost. Unfortunately there is nothing we can do about this, so please bear this in mind when you print multiple copies.

Printing from lab computers

1. Print your work, as per normal, selecting either Printer1, Printer2 or Printer3. Printer2 in the Central Bay has been setup as the default printer, though you may choose another if you wish.

2. Go to the print station, choose the printer to which you sent your print job from the printer list. Jobs are automatically deleted after 30 minutes in the printer queue if they have not been printed.

3. Find your job and double click it. Jobs are identified by the computer name or IP address. A job information window should now open.

4. On the "Please Insert Funds" click "Account" between the "Cancel" and "OK" buttons to bring up the Enter Account Information box.

5. Enter your civil lab username (that is your UWA assigned username) in the "Please Enter Exact Name" field and your student number in the "Please Enter PIN#" field and then click "OK" to print. (You can also check your account balance using the "Account Balance" button on the same window.)

6. If you don't have any quota left insert your campus card into the card reader and click 'OK' to pay for the print job.

7. Your job should now print.

Contact IT Support immediately if the toner has run out during your print job. We will be happy to reprint your job.
