Printing from your own Laptop (or reconfiguring your broken Thinkpad)

I have one of the school laptops but it’s been configured wrong for printing since I got it in September. Not wanting to go to IT (and have them try to reformat it). I’ve been using the Library computers anytime I need to print something and needless to say it’s a pain. So a big thanks to Chris for finding out how to fix the printer setup.

1. Start Menu -> Run
2. Type in: \\osfp01.oncampus.local
3. A prompt will ask for your:
   Username: oncampus\<Your Student ID>
   Password: <your password for logging onto the school computers>
4. After this a list of all the printers will popup. Simply double-click whatever printer(s) you want to install.

Note that the first three steps will need to be repeated each time you restart your computer.
