Printing your work on MyApps 

We can't provide you with support for any problems you may experience while printing from the MyApps Lab applications to your printer.  We have set up MyApps so that the program will do it's best to connect with your local printer. However, as this is a virtual environment and your set up could be anywhere we can't guarantee the print process will work. Perhaps saving your files to PDF and then sending your files through the UTS student printing system would work.
