Printing to a Wepa Print Station

On-campus printing at the University of Connecticut is powered by Wepa. Wepa is a cloud-hosted service that lets you print to any Wepa station with your mobile device, personal computer, or lab computer.

Faculty and staff should not print institutional documents at a Wepa Print Station; instead, they should print them at their office.

How to print

The easiest way to print from a mobile app is by downloading the Wepa print app. With the app, you can print from Apple and Android smartphones and tablets.
