Adding a printer (Windows)

Classroom computers maintained by Aalto IT have a printer pre-installed, but at the various departments users must install a printer on a workstation.

Follow the instructions below to add a printer to a Windows 10 workstation.

Windows 10

1. Open the Start menu and find Printers & scanners (see image below).

2. Select Add a printer or scanner.

3.  Then click The printer that I want isn´t listed (see image below).

4. Find a printer in the directory, based on location or feature.

5. The printer has now been added to the Windows 10 workstation.

6. Aalto’s Windows 10 workstations have a Secureprint print queue pre-installed. If it is missing from the workstation for some reason, the queue can be found in the path \\printvm01\secureprint (see image below).

If you are using a printer or multi-function device that does not have a card reader, print queues can be found on the server: \\printvm02\queue-name (see image below).

If you are using a so called legacy printer, print queues can be found on the server printvm-legacy2.org.aalto.fi.
