Before beginning locate the printer you wish to use. In Pelletier Library, the printers with the red labels (one on each floor) are available for printing from student laptops. Note the Printer Name, Printer IP and Printer Model, displayed on a label on the printer. You will need to enter this information when setting up the printer. Note: Printer information will differ from that shown below.
If this is the first time you have printed to this printer you will need to add the printer to your list of available printers. The instructions below will guide you through the process. You will only need to do this once for each printer you wish to use. If you have printed to this printer before, simply connect your computer to the network and follow the printing instructions.
