Wēpa, which stands for Wireless Everywhere Print Anywhere, is a cloud-based printing network that allows individuals with internet access to upload documents and print them at any available Wēpa kiosk. The SFSC Library at the Highlands Campus is equipped with one such Wēpa kiosk for users' convenience.
Utilizing Wēpa is a seamless process, as users can access the service from any location with an internet connection. By uploading documents to the Wēpa cloud, they can be easily printed at any Wēpa kiosk. Furthermore, a dedicated app is available for download, facilitating the printing process. Payment can be made through an online account or by using a credit or debit card.
Wēpa provides a variety of printing options, including color or black-and-white, as well as single-sided or double-sided printing. The service is both swift and user-friendly, making it an ideal solution for printing needs.
A single kiosk can be found at the Highlands Campus on the second floor of Building Y. The kiosk is strategically placed close to the Service Desk, adjacent to the Restrooms, and behind the Elevator for easy access.
