Where can I find computers and printers?

PCs, Macs and printers can be found throughout the Art School rather than in separate computer suites enabling them to be embedded into studio culture. Many of these are located around the stairwells alongside spaces for you to plug in a laptop.

The nearest kiosk for topping up your printer credit is on the ground floor of the Tower or you can top up your account online by visiting: www.mmu.ac.uk/epay2print 

The buildings are part of the MMU WiFi network and you can log in to the network using your normal MMU ID and password.
