Printers are located in all libraries and student common areas. Students can print from any student machine on campus and pick up their print from any printer located in a student area.
Think Print portals
Why is there two portals? How and when should I access them?
Although both portals look similar they provide very different services for printing.- Think Print Admin
Access the admin portal to generate your 6-digit PIN. All new and re-printed University ID cards require a PIN to be generated before access to printer services is granted or restored. PINs are randomly generated and cannot be set by users. - Think Print
Everything related to student printing can be found under your Think Print portal. Check what jobs are waiting in your print queue, upload a new job, check your current balance, recharge print credit and redeem vouchers. Think Print allows your to recharge using our secure payment system through the Think Print portal.
Think before you print
Notre Dame has adopted a greener approach to printing. We ask all students to think before they print to minimise paper use. Please keep this in mind when using printers on campus. A recycle bin is located near a printer in each area for proper disposable of unwanted paper and printouts.PIN and Printer Access

Internet & wifi access
Wi-Fi is available on our campuses in Broome, Broadway, Darlinghurst and Fremantle. The University is currently in the process of upgrading Wi-Fi across all campuses.
Get connected - Which network?
The University of Notre Dame Australia uses an encrypted wireless Network, to ensure that all Information passing through the wireless is protected.
To access the wireless network you must have an active staff or student username and password. Access to the wireless is granted under the same policies as accessing the wired network.
There are three wireless networks available on all campuses. Not all networks are accessible for students.
UNDA-WiFi
The main wireless network accessible to both staff and students, available on all campuses. Users can connect their personal devices to this network using their university credentials.
UNDA-AD
This network is only accessible on university owned devices. These devices include laptops, portable computers and tablets. Students and staff are unable to connect to this network on personal devices.
Eduroam
Eduroam allows staff and students from member universities to access our wireless network. Notre Dame staff and students can access the teaching and learning spaces (e.g. libraries and WiFi) at other Universities using this network. Almost all Australian universities are members of Eduroam.

Email configuration
Two different services manage Staff and Student email.
- Staff email is managed through Microsoft Exchange and the Information Technology Office. All emails sent and received are monitored through Mimecast SPAM filtering services.
- Microsoft manages student email through the Office 365 service. All emails sent and received are monitored through Microsoft.
Each system is managed differently and therefore cannot be merged or accessed using the same credentials.
Staff email can only be accessed using your staff ID and password through the Outlook Web App (OWA) or the Outlook client app on staff campus computers.
Student email is accessible from the Office 365 portal under the student page on the Notre Dame website.
It is recommended to keep staff and student emails separate.
