Using Multi-Function Devices (MFDs) in Libraries on campuses

Before using Multi-Function Devices (MFDs)

In order for UniSA staff and students to use the scanners/photocopiers in the Libraries they must:

  • ensure they have enough Print Quota.
  • if new to the university or start of a new year, need to ensure they have printed at least 1 page to the Follow-You print queue.
    NOTE: The reason for this is because print quota registers with all systems/devices ONLY after an initial print job is sent.

How do I photocopy?

There are easy to follow instructions displayed while at the Multi-Function Devices (MFD).

How do I scan or photocopy to USB?

Or see the scan or photocopy to USB page for a short 2 minute video.

I have plugged my USB drive into a UniSA MFD for scanning and it is not recognised, what do I do?

Only USBs drives formatted with the FAT32 file system will be recognised. If your USB is not recognised, please:

  1. Remove the USB from the MFD
  2. Go to PC
  3. Plug in your USB
    NOTE: If your USB contains files ensure you back them up e.g. to OneDrive, because once formatted there is no way to retrieve files!
  4. Right mouse click on your USB and File Explorer and reformat to FAT32
  5. Try again in MFD
