Print Copy Scan

You can find Printers around the libraries – they print, copy or scan to email. You will need to register on a printer the first time use one.

Just send your documents to Follow Me Printing and they will be released from any working printer across King’s through use of your King’s ID card.

Send your printing from your personal device by attaching your document and sending an email from your King’s account to emailprint@kcl.ac.uk

You can top-up online to add credit to your print account.
