How it works

Mobile Printing or Mail-to-Print offers the possibility to send a PDF document to UNIprint from any computer (PC, notebook, tablet, smartphone etc.). The print job can be picked up at a later time at any UNIprint device.

Prerequisites for Mobile Printing

•     The document to be printed must be in PDF format (.pdf).

 How to use Mobile Printing

•     Create a new email with your unibas email address
•     Add the corresponding .pdf document as an attachment
•     Send the mail to the address mobileprint@clutterunibas.ch
•     You do not need to enter a special name in the subject line
•     Text in mail is not printed

Print in black/white or color?

•     If the printout is to be colored, this can be changed on the UNIprint device
