How to print from a mobile device or personal computer

All photos on this page are from the OLD Design Factory. However the process is the same.

Step 1

Open your favourite email client and write the text you want to print. You can also attach the files that you want to print.

  • Supported file types: .pdf, .doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx, .jpg, .txt, .ppt or .pptx.)
  • Supported message formatting: Rich Text or HTML
  • Maximum email size: 50MB
  • Processing time can vary from 1 to 15 minutes

The email text and each individual file will appear as separate print jobs.

If your file is in A4 (or any other) format it will be printed in that scale even if you select another paper size on the Printing Point device.

Send the email to mobileprint@aalto.fi from your aalto.fi mail.


Step 2

Go to a Printing Point device.


Step 3

Log into the copy machine by using your printing card.

If you have not registered a printing card. Look at these instructions on how to do that.


Step 3 (optional)

You can also login with your Aalto username and password. To do so press the AD Login button on the printer.

If the copy machine display is in standby press the green button in the upper right corner.

If your password contains a special character (such as a comma ‘,’), login will likely fail. In such a case, you can login after you have changed your password at https://password.aalto.fi/ or by visiting an IT Service Desk.

If you have an Aalto Mac computer please change your password from the System Preferences of that computer or you might face keychain sync issues.


Step 4

Select Secure Print from the options.


Step 5

Select the print jobs that you want to print and print them.

Remember to logout

If your print job is very big, takes more than 9 minutes to print. Make sure you tap on the display every now and then. This is because after 9 minutes of screen inactivity users are automatically logged out and printing is stopped.


Done

You should be happy now. Bravo, have a party.
