Printing

Installing printers in Windows

This method may work best if your Windows machine is in the EECS Domain (Active Directory), and you have local administrative access.

  1. Click the Windows Button and search for “Run”. Click on “Run” to open a “run” Window.
  2. Type “\\print.eecs.berkeley.edu” and press OK.

  3. A list of all printers on the print server will appear. Scroll through and double-click on the printer you want to use, and follow the on-screen prompts to install it on your system.

Installing printers in Windows via lpd

If you run into trouble with the previous method, you can instead install printers using their lpd queue on print.eecs.

For the public printers in Soda Hall (lws384 and lws730):

  • For paper/toner problems contact csoffice@cs.berkeley.edu
  • For other problems, contact copiers-printers@eecs.berkeley.edu

Note: For problems with private printers in Soda Hall, users should contact their local system administrator.
