Adding a printer from the server (Windows)

* You must have the correct permissions to access the printer or you won't be able to add it. If you encounter problems, please email fosithelp@mun.ca

  1. Open File Explorer
  2. Click the address bar at the top of the file explorer window (not the searchbar on the right side) and type \\memprntsrv02 then click Enter.
  3. This will bring up a list of all the printers on the print server. The naming convention of each printer starts with a letter representing the campus, and several letters representing the department.
    • For example, SDOS for the Ocean Sciences Centre or SBIO for Biology
  4. Double click the printer you need to add, and that should download the correct driver and add the printer. Please note that this can take a few minutes without giving any indication it is installing.
  5. Confirm that the printer has been added by clicking the Windows key and typing "Printers and scanners". Make sure the printer you're adding shows in the list.
