Printing Basics

Printing is charged per page. It is 25 cents for colour or 7 cents for greyscale (black and white).

In order to print at DBS you will need to set up a print account. To set up your account and print, follow the steps below.

You need to set up your printing account at webprint.dbs.ie . You log in using your Moodle username and password.
  1. Click on "Add Credit".
  2. Choose the top-up amount.
  3. Enter your card details.
  1. Click on "Webprint".
  2. Click "Submit a Job".
  3. Select colour or grayscale (black and white) from the options. Leave the "Select a Printer" field blank.
  4. Choose how many copies you want to print.
  5. Upload the file and click "Upload Complete".

At this point your file will be held “in queue” at any of the printers and it will stay in our network for 4 hours. When you use the printer for the first time you need to enter your Moodle username and password after you tap your card. Remember to be conscious and only print what is necessary.

If you have any questions or any difficulties feel free to contact the library or the IT Service Desk.
