University Printers- The Scanning Option

Brilliant new idea from the University. They decided that they'd set the printers up so that you can scan a piece of paper, which it promptly emails to your university email address, for you to read as a PDF or print at your leisure. What a nice idea.

Until, of course, you have scanned two articles, only to get to the printer and be confronted with 54 PDFs, all with names like ypp.237w4987234698.pdf, with half the pages missing and in any sort of order, and some of them being things you're pretty sure you've never seen before, let alone scanned...

Well done University, it's another winner!

N.B. Its also apparently nigh on impossible to persuade the printer not to print duplex (double sided, apparently)...
