Students can print and copy documents on publicly available copiers (multifunctionals) for a fee, scanning is free.

• Printing can be done from an application on Athena on your own device or from a public PC.
• There are two types of devices for students: multifunctionals with a payment terminal (printing, copying and scanning) or without a payment terminal (only scanning).
• You pay via the Epurse payment system. For this, you need a student card.
• You only pay for the pages that are actually printed.
• Prices and locations.
