In July 2018 the four Sharp Multifunction Printers Devices (MFD) will be updated from using traditional individual print queues to a single, unified 'Hold and Release' queue queue.
Hold & Release printing allows you to send a print job to the queue then collect the print from any one of four printers located in IMS Level 4 & 5. The system allows you to send a print job to a single print queue, then approach any enabled printer and use your University or NHS ID card to authenticate and release the print job. The primary benefit of Hold & Release is security, since the print job will not be released until you are at the printer and access the printer with your identity card. Additionally, if you print but find a printer is already in use for a large job, you can easily switch to another. Once logged on to a printer you can easily scan documents to your email address or access the usual copy and scan functions of the multi functional devices.
