Can personal documents be saved on the laptop?
The hard drive cannot be used for temporary or permanent storage of files. Security software reconfigures the laptop each time it is rebooted erasing any files on the hard drive. Therefore, we suggest that you e-mail yourself files you want to save, or save to a USB drive or cloud drive.
 
How can I use the laptop for wireless printing?

Use ‘Web Print’ after you log onto webprint.nottingham.edu.cn.
