Installing printers in Windows

This method may work best if your Windows machine is in the Campus 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 Mobility Print

If you run into trouble with the previous method, you can instead use Mobility Print:

1. While on campus networks or VPN, go to https://print.eecs.berkeley.edu/
2. Follow the link to the Mobility Print installer
3. Download and run the installer, which will prompt you to authenticate with your CalNet credentials, and will let you choose which printer(s) to add. You may keep and re-run the installer later, to add more printers.

Which printers can I print to?

Who can help support my printer, or my group’s printer?

For simple network, security, and device support (e.g. no toner replacement), our Computer User Support Group has an annual contract option. CUSG can set it up and get it working for you, and become the registered security contact for the printer.

For general, all-around support that includes toner replacement, we recommend working with the Cartridge Family — “Simply order your toner cartridges from Cartridge Family and all service, labor and parts are included.”

For large-scale office printing, UCSF Documents & Media offers a printer management program to UC Berkeley.
