At Tampere Universities, MFDs are available for printing, copying and scanning. MFDs are available to all students and staff, who can log in using their TUNI username or TUNI email address. Students are charged for printing and copying, but scanning is free. Students can print from TUNI computers or personal devices.

Students can refill their print quota via the print portal at print.tuni.fi.
