- In Name field, enter a friendly and informative printer name. (i.e. “TOSHIBA e-Studio 2820c”)
- Choose a driver for this printer by pulling down the drop-down box Use and selecting Select Software (if the proper driver is missing, download it before this procedure)
- Click the Add button
- Test print and when asked use the correct UNITN credentials. (see image below)
N.B.:
- if authentication fails try with the credentials in this form: nome.cognome@unitn.it
N.B.: Printers all have a name (it also appears on the label on them) composed as follow: PI_p0_Portineria_Colore
- PI (o PF) = Palazzo Istruzione (o Palazzo Fedrigotti)
- p0 = Ground Zero
- Portineria = Place identification where the printer is located
- Colore = Printer type (Color or Black and White)
CRITICAL: If you have changed your UNITN password you must delete the previously saved credentials, to do this:
- Using the quick search, in the upper left, open the application keychain → select the entry for the printer
- Control-Click (or mouse right-click) select delete → at request confirm
