To install a group printer in Mac OS X (editions of Mac OS X might have slightly different wording )
- You may want to install the most up-to-date drivers from Apple for your printer before installing ( ex: see http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907 for HP printers )
- Open System Preferences and go to Printers and Scanners
- Click on the + sign to add a printer
- Click on the IP system
- Enter the printer name for the address
- See label on the printer for the name (please avoid using the IP address)
- Change the protocol to HP JetDirect Socket (even if the printer is not an HP printer)
- Leave the Queue empty, name and locate the printer something you prefer and will remember
- Correct the printer driver as necessary
----If you have any questions, problems, or concerns on connecting to your group's servers and/or printers, please first attempt to work with your group's computer person and when necessary, please contact Chemistry IT at <crcf//AT//cornell.edu> or stop by 250 Baker Lab for assistance.
