Student Printing



At EIT we use PaperCut as our printing system. As an EIT student you will use this to print your course, study and assessment materials. The following sections explain how to use PaperCut and to print at EIT.

To top up your printing balance you will need to purchase a printing voucher from the Library helpdesk M103. There are values ranging from $1.00 to $10.00 Eftpos available. Auckland students can buy print vouchers to use to top up your account from the Auckland Administrator, Level 9, 238 Queen Street. Ph 09 3007410

Please Note: Refunds are not available. Please be mindful of this when topping up your printing.
