1. Scanner 'Save to external device' button disappears between scanning jobs

Tap the small USB icon on the top right of the copier display until the button reappears

2. No Job ID is received after sending your print job (Note: the Job ID can take up to 5 minutes to arrive)

Add 'libprintpatron@cambridge.wa.gov.au' to the white listed addresses in your email settings and try again. Alternatively, log onto a public PC and send the job through from there.

3. Payment has been made but no printing or an incomplete print job is released.

Check the printer screen and select a paper tray if prompted.

Check paper trays have sufficient paper loaded.
