These are instructions for adding a black and white printer. For details on how to add a color printer, click here.

Here’s how you add a printer:

1.) Click the start button (the window in the lower left-hand corner) and select “Devices and Printers”.

2.) Click “Add a printer” at the top of the window.


3.) Click “Add a network, wireless or Bluetooth printer”.


4.) Click “The printer I want isn’t listed”.


5.) Select “Find a printer in the directory, based on location or feature” and click “Next”.


6.) Select the printer from the list at the bottom and click “OK”.


7.) You may be prompted to install the printer drivers. Follow the directions that go along with that installation.

8.) Once the install is complete, you will be given the option to make this printer your default. If you DO NOT want to set this printer as your default, uncheck that option.


9.) Click “Finish”.

10.) Return to the "Devices and Printers" screen, right-click on the printer you just added and select "Printing Preferences".

11.) Click the "Job Log" tab.

12.) Enter the your User ID code into the "User ID" field. (To find your office's User ID code, please consult the list here.)

13.) Click the drop-down in the "Log" section and select "Enabled".

14.) Enter your User ID (from Step 12) into the "User Code" field and click "OK".

Now you should be able to print from that network printer. If you are unable to print to the selected printer after following these steps, please contact the Help Desk.
