Printing

Students at the University of Potsdam can send print jobs via the Uniflow printing service from all library computers and retrieve them from the student printers on campus using the PUCK card. It is not possible to print directly from a USB stick at the printers. The printing costs are paid with the payment function of the PUCK card. Please make sure that you have sufficient credit on the PUCK card when placing the print job, otherwise it will not be carried out.

Please note that copies and scans may only be created and used within the strict framework of the copyright law.
