Issue/Question
How do I install a network printer on a remote site that does not have Pharos.
Environment
Resolution
Note: Installing a printer direct to IP is only used in certain cases
Those cases include but may not be limited to
- no local printer server at the site (RC Med, SDSD, etc)
- certain special printers that may only function correctly when setup directly via IP.
Installing Instructions
- Right-click
- Click Search
- Type Printers & Scanners
- Click on the result
- Click Add a printer or scanner
- Click The printer that I want isn't listed
- Check Add a local printer or network printer with manual settings
- Click Next
- Check Create a new port
- Select Standard TCP/IP Port from the drop down menu
- Click Next
- Type the IPV4 address of the printer found in the configuration or displayed in the window on the printer
- Click Next
- Click OK
- Select correct printer model driver from the list
Note: If you have a disk, click have disk, if not, run Windows update or download correct driver from the manufacturer's website
- Name the printer something you will recognize
- Click Next
- Select Do not share this printer
- Click Next
