Add Printers & Release Jobs on Macs (Faculty only)

Before going further, you will need to install the SU Azure VPN following these directions. Once you have the VPN installed, before adding the printers, start the VPN app and sign in. When you are done adding the printers, disconnect the VPN. Every time you want to print, you'll need to first start the VPN, then send the print. When done printing, disconnect the VPN. Open System Preferences > Print & Scan Click the “+” sign > Add Printer or Scanner The “Add” window will appear. If you don't see an “Advanced” button on the toolbar (alongside the existing icons Default/IP/Windows), we will need to add it. Control+click on the toolbar area and choose “Customize Toolbar”. Drag the Advanced icon onto the toolbar and drop it. Click Done. Click Advanced and wait for it to stop searching. Enter the following: Type: Windows printer via spoolss Device: Another device URL: smb://arch-print.ad.syr.edu/ARCH-FAC-306-LJ5200 Name: ARCH-FAC-306-LJ5200 (make sure not to leave it as arch-print.ad.syr.edu!) Location: Slocum 306 Use: Select Printer Software When you choose Select Printer Software, the Printer Software window appears. In the Filter box, enter a part of the printer name such as 5200 to quickly filter the list. In this example, pick HP LaserJet 5200 then click OK. If the HP printers don’t appear, download the HP driver pack. Install it, then go back to Step 5 and continue. These drivers should install up to macOS 26.6.1. If you have a newer OS, please let us know so we can update the driver pack. Click Add. Configure appropriate installed options for the printer such as adding Tray 3 and checking ‘Duplex’. Then click OK. Each printer will have various installed options to configure. Consult the chart under Step 11 to get it right for each additional printer. The first time printing, you will be prompted to enter your NetID and NetID password. To save the credentials, click the “Remember this password in my keychain.” For each additional printer you want to add from the list below, repeat steps 5 through 9. We recommend adding the two closest B&W printers plus at least two color. You may wish to add a couple of large format printers from the plot room.
