P&P News
The print server for OU printers has been given a generic name to simplify user management in the event of hardware changes. It is now accessible under the name scc-print-ou.scc.kit.edu
The old name can still be used for the time being, but should no longer be used for new setups. Please let your colleagues know about this change!
To ensure consistency in the English translation of our website, some short URLs containing English words have been reassigned for the English pages, and the German short URLs have been adjusted accordingly ("my" → "mein", etc.). We appreciate your understanding.
WORK IN PROGRESS(!), but please don’t hesitate to let us know if you notice any errors—thank you very much!
The cause of the error has been identified and the problem has been resolved. We can once again recommend the use of our large format printers without reservation!
25.11.2025: It has repeatedly been found that posters created with Affinity Designer and then exported to PDF format are printed in unsatisfactory quality on our large-format printers.
A typical error is the printing of double (parallel) lines in vector objects, but sometimes also in embedded bitmaps in posters with strong graphic content (architecture posters).
This week, the Print & Plot websites are being reorganized. With the introduction of my Print & Plot (★ scc.kit.edu/myprintandplot), you will soon be able to access all personalized services (print account inquiry, print job status, webPRINT) on a single website with just one login. You can switch between functions using tabs.
Please use the “Logout” function in the top right corner when you leave my Print & Plot.
As part of the changeover, all other websites related to P&P that were previously managed separately will also be gradually restructured or consolidated and will then be found in the “FAQ / Help” section.
