Printing

HVL's system for copying, scanning and printing of documents for students, is based on student card and card readers on the printers.

New students and employees who do not have a card can log in to the printers by entering their username and password directly on the printer. The username for students is their student number.

Once the card is activated, use it to log in by holding it over the card reader on the printer.

Important information for students about your print account at HVL

All students are allocated 100 NOK on their print account when they start their studies at HVL for the first time. This amount can be used to print on our printers and gives you a good start to your study period. Note that this allocation is given only once. If you complete your studies and later start a new study program, you will not receive new funds for your print account.

Remember:

  • The amount of 100 NOK is only allocated upon the first registration as a student at HVL.

  • There is no connection between the copy and learning material fee and your personal print account.

  • Unused funds on the print account will not be refunded, and the account will be blocked when you complete your studies.

How to activate the card

  • Hold the card over the card reader.

  • You will receive a message that says "Unknown User," followed by the message "Login to register card."

  • Click on "Username" and enter your username. This is your student number or employee username.

  • Click on "Password" and enter your password.

  • Then click "OK."

Top up your print account (students only)

Note: There is no connection between the copy and learning material fee and your personal print account at HVL.

  1. Go to Myprint.hvl.no and log in with your username (student number) and password. A login screen will appear.

  2. Click the "Purchase credit" button to add credit.

Important: Make sure to use the remaining balance on your card before completing your studies. Unfortunately, it is not possible to get a refund for any outstanding amount. The account will be locked when you complete your studies at HVL.

How to use the printers
