Printing

Printing from Desktops, Login, WS, GPU is available to all users that have a Durham CIS account.

General Printing (New)

You should only need to print using a single print queue named “CIS-PrintQueue”, this will send your print job to the centralised CIS Pull Print system. You can then retrieve your job by going to any printer on campus and scanning/tapping your campus card on the tap point.

If you do not have a campus card, a Durham CIS account or are having any other issues then please feel free to get in touch.

We have several printers locally available (however you’re not limited to just these):
