Notes:

• If you do not release your print jobs, they will be deleted overnight.
• The print-server calculates the size of documents to be printed irrespective of their real size. Print-jobs >100MB are disallowed due to oversize. These jobs will not be printed. In this case please split your document in two or more print-jobs.
  As an alternative you can print documents >100 MB from Monday - Friday from 6 pm onwards and on Saturdays and Sundays.

Both multi-function devices (MFP) can be used for copying and scanning, copying is possible at a coin-operated photocopier, too. Instruction-sheets are placed at the MFP.
