Mobile printing on phone, tablet or laptop

You can print from any PC, Mac, laptop, phone or tablet using the Mobile Print tools.

You do not have to be in the University to Print – just send your work to the MyPrint queue using the mobile print tools and pick it up later from any LJMU printer. There is no need to find an available PC or copy files onto a memory stick. Just work in your favourite app on your own device and send to the University’s MyPrint queue using the Email and Web Print tools described below.

Coming Soon:

  • Papercut Apps will be available soon for all platforms to allow you to print directly from PC, Mac, Android, iOS device (iPhone/ iPad) and Chromebook. 
  • Standard printer drivers will be available for PC & Mac.

Printing via Email 

The quickest way to print from a mobile device is by sending an attachment via email from your LJMU email address – see “Email” below (but you can also use Web Print on the MyPrint Portal to print any Office, PDF or image file via your web browser to any LJMU printer).

You can send a simple email with attachment(s) to MyPrint@ljmu.ac.uk . This will appear on your list of print jobs within 3-5 minutes.  Jobs submitted via email will print in colour and double-sided by default.
