Our service for you
We print and copy your documents (term papers, seminar papers, theses, readers, etc.).
Please make sure that all files and documents have a high resolution or decent image quality, so that we can offer you the best possible quality.
For safety reasons we cannot print any files from your flashdrives.
In addition, you can of course print, scan and copy on our modern printers. This is very easy with our AStA Copyclient App or the AStA-Print Webclient.

Copyservice FAQ
Thesis questions
The time it takes to print and bind a thesis depends on the number of customers and the number of copies you need. As soon as you have sent your order, we will process it as quickly as possible. Normally you can pick it up on the next business day. We do our best with every customer both in quality and time. However, please understand if you have to wait a little longer because other orders have to be completed before yours. Should this be the case, you will be given an approximate pick-up time at which you can be expected to arrive at the earliest.
We have regularly changing offers for binding a thesis. You can find the current price on our order form page.
Yes, the offer price is also valid for longer pieces of work. However, only under the specified conditions. Each additional b/w page is charged with 0,10 €, each additional color page with 0,20 €.
Yes, you can have this done by us. Alternatively you can have your thesis saved to a flashdrive sold by us. This will increase the price accordingly.
It depends on your examiner’s default. By default, most students print on one side. In the case of a double-sided version, however, you should also observe the special formatting requirements of the university, for example, where the page numbers have to be placed.
About 1 cm of the papers width is being bound. The default page space for final papers is therefore sufficient and you do not need to pay attention to anything else.
For your thesis, you have quite a large selection of different book covers at your disposal, which you are welcome to take a look at on site. On the one hand, you can choose between hardcover and softcover bindings, on the other hand between the different colors black, blue, dark red, dark green and gray (see below). The colors here may differ from the original colors. The book bindings are not printable from the outside, but we can emboss them (see FAQ about embossing).
Yes, you can have the hardcover of your thesis embossed in gold or silver. The first column costs €5, second column €2.50.
For the first column you may choose between the following: Bachelor- / Masterarbeit, Dissertation, Bachelor / Master Thesis
For the second column you may add your name.
Unfortunately, soft covers cannot be embossed.
Other questions
The AStA Copyservice is located below the Mensa and right next to the Grillcafé (in ME.U.205), i.e. inside the university building and not outside. Please note that the AStA Copyservice is not the university’s in-house print store (formerly known as Canon-Druckshop).
You can find our contact details above on this page.
