WEPA

WEPA is the student printing solution on UW-Milwaukee campuses. This print service allows users to print on demand around campus and will accept payment via Student ID Cards (utilizing the Gold Account services), Credit/Debit Cards, or funds added directly to the user's WEPA account.  

WEPA accounts may be accessed by navigating to https://wepanow.com/, choosing UW-Milwaukee from the listing of schools and then using your UWM credentials.
