You can use the form below to send us files to print out or for us to work on on your behalf. You should also provide your name, email address and/or phone number and choose from the available options as applicable. These details will be sent to u-print.com to enable us to process your file. If your file is especially urgent, please phone (0161) 306 3269 or call into u-print.com.

If you send a file with the same name as one previously sent, the older one will be automatically replaced. However, you should make a note in the instructions to this effect to minimise confusion as we receive one email per file.

If you have problems with the web upload facility, please use YouSendIt, using uprint@umsu.manchester.ac.uk as the Recipient email address.

If you are sending a non-graphic file format i.e. not EPS, JPEG, TIFF, etc, please send a PDF file. This helps minimise problems with missing fonts and layout changing that we often get, especially with Microsoft Word and Publisher files. If you use an Apple Mac, you can create a PDF using the Print command. If you use Microsoft Windows, you can get free software to make PDFs called PrimoPDF.

Click the "Browse" button to locate and select the file to be uploaded from your computer. Please bear in mind that the larger the file you try to send, the longer it will take so please be patient. You can only send one file at a time. Please include your email address in order for us to send you a confirmation of receipt.

For files that are ready to print, we recommend PDF (Acrobat). For other jobs that require a master making up, e.g. business cards or flyers, a graphic file would be better. See the file formats page for more information including how to make PDFs for free.

Please specify as many of the following options below as you can to help us print the job correctly for you. Note that some options are not compatible with others so ask us if you're not sure.

Number of Copies:

We assume one copy if not otherwise specified. For flyers and similar jobs where the finished size is different to the original paper size, please enter the quantity of flyers etc. here, and select the correct finished size below.

Finished Size:

We can (usually) convert your original A4 document into a flyer, or blow it up to A3. If you want a business card printed to the edge, you must supply suitable artwork with a bleed - see the business card page.

Print type:

A page with one dot of colour or more is classed as Colour. Mixed means some pages are Black only, some are Colour.

Single or Double sided:

We assume single sided if not otherwise specified.

Orientation:

Select here if it's not obvious.

Paper:

Please specify if you require something other than our standard white 80gsm paper. We recommend thicker paper, e.g. 100gsm, if there is a lot of colour on your page(s), especially if you are printing double sided. All papers listed above are white except for coloured papers; if you would like a coloured paper, please specify required colour in the Special Instructions.

Stapled:

For a single staple in the top corner of the document. This may be free of charge depending on the job itself.

Binding:

If you select any of the 3 soft bindings, we will use a clear front and black card back unless you specify otherwise in the Special Instructions.

Booklet Fold & Staple:

Cost is 10p per booklet.

When Required:

if Other:
Please state a realistic latest date & time for completion. DO NOT put As soon as possible or ASAP. Date/Time cannot be guaranteed so call in or phone (0161) 306 3269 if critical.

Archive for future use:

We can save your file to be printed again at some point in the future. This service is subject to availability. Please ask if you need long-term storage.

When ready, contact by:

We will attempt to contact you when your work is ready but this cannot always be done, especially during busy periods. If you supply a mobile phone number, we will as a rule send a text message rather than call you. Note that if we do phone you, the number will be Withheld due to the way that the University exchange works.

If Microsoft Word (Windows), which version:

If the file you are sending has a mixture of the above options, please specify which pages are which in the instructions below.
