Photocopying guide

Pcounter is the campus wide pay for print & copy system.
Every registered student automatically has a Pcounter account. If you have not yet purchased Pcounter credit you can do so at the Book Nest or at the vending machine in the Library.
Note : Pcounter Topups are non-refundable at the end of the year, so only buy as much as you need.
