Student Printing Training Resource

3. Email printing

If you want to print from your own device you can do this by emailing your work to the printer.

However, this method will only work with specific file formats:

• PDF documents
• Images (.jpg)

If you need to print a Microsoft document, as these file types are not supported, you will have to save your document as either a PDF or an image.

From within a Microsoft App (web version) 

• select the 'File' menu
• Select 'Save as'
• Select 'Download as PDF or Download as images'

Then attach the PDF or image file to an email and send it to:

print@live.blackburn.ac.uk. 

You MUST send the email from your student email address (ID number@live.blackburn.ac.uk) otherwise, the email will bounce back and you will get a delivery failure message.
