How can I upload documents to vPrint?

vPrint’s improved accessibility provides a variety of options for uploading documents for printing. You can upload documents by:

  • Using your Villanova email username and password to log on to any vDesktop Terminal found throughout campus, and setting "vPrint" as your printer when printing a document
  • Logging on to your Villanova email and sending an email with your attached document(s) to vprint@villanova.edu
  • Using your Villanova email username and password to log on to vPrint Mobile, available at vprintmobile.villanova.edu
  • Installing the vPrint student software found at software.villanova.edu, and then setting your default printer to "vPrint" when printing on-campus from your laptop

Note: All printers used by the vPrint printing system print in black and white, however, only the two printers found in Drosdick Hall have color-printing capabilities. Users who require colored prints are asked to utilize these two printers, or alternatively, print via iPrint at the Bartley Print Center.

How long do I have to print my uploaded documents before they are erased from vPrint?

Uploaded documents will remain available on vPrint for 24 hours. However, once a document is printed, it will be erased from vPrint.
