Print Unit
The Print Unit provides on site reprographics services including bulk photocopying and digital printing, manages the production of externally sourced printing work, and produces University ID cards for staff and students.
Find us
The Print Unit is open to in-person visitors from 9.30am to 4.00pm, Monday to Friday, until 4.00pm on Monday 30 June 2025. All enquiries outside these hours should be made by email to the named contacts listed below.
We are located in Hastings Building (access via Estates Road, not main reception). You can view a map showing our location here. Estates Road is often busy with service vehicles so take care when in the area. Please ring the bell for attention on arrival.
University customers who raise purchase orders for printing work should visit our Placing an order page for full details of the procedure. We can also take debit or credit card payments for customers wishing to pay for their own printing.
Deliveries on campus are made via the internal mail service. Consignments are delivered to the local porters' office for onward distribution to the required location.
Print Unit closing 30 June
The Print Unit is closing on Monday 30 June. Please be aware that from Friday 13 June you will only be able to submit new orders if they can be completed before the service closes.
The University has procured a new, external print service called Print Marketplace that can be used by anyone with a Sussex email address. Print Marketplace is a UK-wide digital platform developed by the Crown Commercial Service (CCS) to enable public-sector organisations to purchase print from pre-approved suppliers at competitive prices.
For more information about how to use Print Marketplace and set up your account, please refer to guidance on the University website.
