FAQs - Send PAPER ORIGINALS ("Hard Copy"jobs)
Although the best results can often be obtained by sending "electronic" versions of files to be printed, many clients still prefer to send paper originals ("hard copy") to Document Services for printing.
Upon receipt, the paper originals are converted to "electronic" format using our sophisticated document scanning process. During this process, all extraneous marks and faults in the originals are removed as far as possible before the final version of the document is printed. This ensures that the highest quality, best possible result is obtained from your paper originals.
It is worth noting that many EXTERNAL print providers offering document copying and reproduction services do NOT provide this level of extra care.
Q - How should I submit my Paper Originals ("hard copy" job) for printing at Document Services?
A - follow these steps:
- Complete a "Print Request Form" to accompany your hard-copy original to Document Services. Pads of Pre-Printed "Print Request Forms are usually available in your School Office. If you require additional pads they can be obtained from Document Services. ALTERNATIVELY, you can download a "Print Request" form from here.
- Ensure that all the required details on the form are properly completed.
- Enclose the completed and authorised form with your originals, and send to Document Services:
- via the internal mail service, addressed to "Document Services, Underdale"
