Initial setup on the printer:
- Log in to the printer with your 8-digit PIN the first time you use the printer.
Badge-Authentication:
- Open the menu item ‘Badge authentication’ in the UTAX Print app on your mobile phone and select ‘ID card registration’ on the printer.
- Hold your mobile phone (or alternatively an NFC-enabled device such as a DeliCard/city campus card) up to the printer sensor to deposit it.
- In future, you will only need to hold the device in front of you – no PIN entry required.
- On your mobile phone, you must have ‘badge authentication’ open in the UTAX Print app in order to log in to the device with your mobile phone.
Print jobs via the App:
- Control your print jobs and upload files from your mobile phone (GoogleDrive, OneDrive – Cloud must be set to www.asta-print.de in advance, but can then also be used via the app).
- Edit print settings (colour printing/black and white, single or double-sided, number of copies, etc.) in the app.
- Note: You must specify the page range you want to print in the app beforehand; it can no longer be changed on the printer. (Example: you have a document with 20 pages and only want to print pages 1-7).
Costs & billing:
- The printing costs are automatically deducted from your account.
Cancel your print:
- If you want to cancel printing, log out using the lock symbol.
- You will only be charged for what has already been printed; to continue, you must upload the job again.

Alternative per Mail:

Send your documents to (be sure to use the same email address that you entered on asta-print.upb.de).

Use the following hashtags in the subject line for other printing instructions when printing by email:
- For colour printing: #farbe
- For b/w printing: #mono
- For single-sided printing: #simplex
- For double-sided printing: #duplex
After logging in to the printer, your sent jobs will appear automatically and you can start printing
