Everything you need to know about Printing for Teachers

There’s a better way to print

Have you ever worked out how much paper you get through every year? Or how much time you spend standing by the printer and photocopier? You probably didn’t get into teaching because you love hanging out by laserjets, so here’s your guide to better printing and getting time back to do the important things. 

Do teachers still need to print?

The short answer is ‘yes’ — but why is that the case in the digital age? 

If you want more engaged, imaginative, creative, students, then physical pages are a must. The reason why is illustrated by the fact that people who doodle while receiving information remember things 29% better than those who simply listen. 

Physical engagement is directly linked to mental engagement. You shouldn’t deprive students of the opportunity to write, scribble, or draw directly on a text, because doing so makes them better learners. 

Printing also means that you can display students’ work, which is a simple but powerful way to reward effort and boost self-esteem. Keeping things on tablets and computers make it almost impossible to replicate that impact. 

A better way to print

What if you never had to use the school printer ever again? 

No more waiting for someone to finish using it, finding last minute that the ink has run out, digging out reams of A4 to replenish the paper tray, wondering what that error message means, or accidentally printing three times more sheets than you intended because you thought you might not have pressed ‘print’ property the first three times. 

How Printt works

If it’s A4, we’ll print it.  

With Printt, you just need to upload your documents, and choose black & white or colour, tell us how many copies you want, and whether you want them bound or laminated. We’ll either post your printing to an address of your choice, or have them ready to collect from your nearest Ryman.  

We know you’ll often need your printing ready urgently, so you’ll be able to get your click & collect order in two hours, or your delivery the next day. 

How Printt works for schools

When you’re a teacher, you’re never ‘finished’ — there’s always another job to do. You don’t want to spend your time walking back and forth between the classroom and the printer, when you could be getting on with other things. 

Setting up a business account for your school 

You don’t need the fuss of submitting expenses for your printing, so when you set up a Printt business account, you can register one card for the whole team to use, billing and tracking expenses centrally. 

Lamination 

It’s one thing to hope the printer’s going to cooperate with you, but sometimes once you’ve exhausted your patience you’re only halfway through the job. Now you need to go and laminate. You can probably do without standing there, feeding page after page into that slow…slow…machine. If you prefer, we could do it for you. Just choose ‘lamination’ in your order. 

Printing during the school holidays 

Term starts soon and you’re getting prepped. You could go to school and use the printer, or you could stay at home and print at your own expense using your printer. Alternatively, you can save yourself the trip and the cost by using Printt. 

Sustainable printing 

 If your school has a sustainability charter or signed up to a green pledge, your printer is undermining that commitment. All the energy, paper, and water it uses for ink add up over time, and thousands of printers end up in landfill every year. 

If you want to start printing sustainably, use Printt. We plant a tree for every 5000 pages we print, and we donate a portion of every print cost to the Woodland Trust to help them protect and restore the UK’s woodland.
