Setting up departmental printers

RTI has three shared departmental printers for use across all labs. These are full featured color printers/scanner/copiers:

    • 5th floor (2000s, RTI/QHS): IP 172.19.126.3 (printer model is Toshiba eStudio 3515AC)

    • 4th floor (2000s, RTI): IP 146.189.162.228

    • 4th floor (1000s, RTI/BIB): IP 172.19.124.27

To set-up these printers on your computer:

1) Download the necessary Toshiba printer driver and install on your computer (Scroll down to the eBridge Current Drivers section).

2) Open a blank MS Word document and select "Print" from the "File" drop down menu. You will need to add new printer by entering the corresponding IP address. After selecting your Printer from the first drop down, Select "Print Mode" from the third drop down menu, by default it is set to "Copies and Pages"

3) Click the check box next to "Department Code" and then enter the code (52057) in the field- DO NOT CLICK "Print"!

4) Now we must save the preset so we do not need to enter the information again. Now back in the main "Print" window, select "Save Current Settings as Preset..." from the second drop down menu, by default it is set to "Default Settings"

5) Enter a name, "With Code" is recommended to easily distinguish. Make sure "Only this printer" is selected, and then press the "OK" button.

6) You should now see your newly created preset in the second dropdown menu. This should remain the default whenever printing unless changed. As long is this preset is selected, you can print to any Department Code enabled printer without issue.
