How to print to the campus printers from home

In order to be able to print to the campus printers from home you will need to have VPN access. Students will have to request VPN access (add an exceptional motivation and include an endorsement from your lecturer) here at the Central IT Service Desk (https://servicedesk.sun.ac.za).

Then you will be able to set up and print to the Safecom printers
