Mapping a network Printer

WINDOWS 11

  1. Search "Printers & Scanners" in the Start menu.
  2. Click "Add a printer".
  3. The printer you want won't be listed. Click "Add manually".
  4. Select the option for "Select a shared printer by name".
  5. Type "\\katu-services\" a drop-down list should pop up with the available printer. Find the one you are after, the names aren't too terrible to decipher, click on it.
    A box will probably pop up telling you it is installing drivers.
    When that is done it will say you have successfully added "[printer name] on katu-services"
  6. Click "next", thenĀ "finish".

The procedure on Windows 10 varies slightly in nomenclature.

OPTIONAL:
By default, Windows will manage your default printer based on the one you used most recently. If you regularly use multiple printers, this may prove to be a detriment. You can follow the steps below to disable this feature.

  1. Return to the "Printers & Scanners" section in the settings
  2. At the bottom of the list, turn off "Let Windows manage my default printer".
  3. Find and click the printer you would like to make your default.
  4. Click "Set as default".
