How do I connect to the central printers? (Mac, simple)
Make sure your Apple Mac is connected to the University network.(How do I do that?)
- Click the Apple icon at the top left
- Select System Preferences...
- Open Printers and Scanners.
- Click the plus icon (+) under the Printers List.
- Select the Default tab.
- Select 'blackandwhite' and ensure Name, Location and Use match the screenshot below.
- Click Add
- Print your document. When prompted, enter your University Username and Password.
- To add the colour queue, repeat the steps above and change the name to colour.
- If you enter the wrong password, you will not be shown a warning message and your print jobs will not appear on the printers.
- If your job doesn’t print, check the Print Queue dialog which appears at the bottom of the screen.
- If the print job is there and has the message Held for authentication, click the retry icon; then re-enter your login details.
