Planned outage for printing and photocopying services – Friday 4 to Monday 7 September

We would like to advise students of an upcoming outage for printing and photocopying services for essential work. 

To strengthen Westminster’s cyber security posture and reduce the risk and impact of cyber security incidents, we are implementing multi-factor authentication (MFA) and single sign-on (SSO) across all PaperCut portals.

This change will affect users accessing PaperCut from outside Westminster’s network and not connected to a VPN.

As a result of this work, Papercut, printing and photocopying services will be unavailable from 8am Friday 4 September to 4pm Monday 7 September across all campuses.

We're sorry for the inconvenience this will cause and thank you for your patience and understanding while this essential work is carried out.
