To help with making studying more affordable wherever possible, the cost of colour printing on UAL Print machines will be reduced by 25% from Wednesday 8 January 2020.

The new colour printing costs are as follows:

  • A4 colour: 15p per page (previously 20p)
  • A3 colour: 24p per page (previously 32p)

Black and white printing costs remain the same:

  • A4 black and white: 4p per page
  • A3 black and white: 8p per page

UAL Print machines can be found across UAL sites, with the majority based in college libraries and Learning Zones. These printers should be used for standard printing, scanning and copying needs. If you require specialist printing, it’s recommended that you speak with your local college print room to discuss your options.
