Printing from WebDisciples

 
<< Back to main WebDisciples page

You first need to set up a new printer.  Each Operating System handles this differently.  Please note that Vista currently is unable to print from WebDisciples.

In Windows XP,
  • go to Start -> Settings -> Printers and Faxes.  
  • Double-click on "Add Printer".  Click on Next.
  • Choose "A network printer, or a printer attached to another computer"  and then click "Next"
  • Choose "Connect to this printer" (or to browse for a printer, select this option and click Next):  In the "Name:" field, you will need to know the name of the printer you want to print to.  All printer names start with the following:  \\Andrew\  then this is followed by the printer name.  Printer names should be labeled on the outside of every printer on campus.  For example, if you wanted to install the printer labeled LBH4, you would type \\Andrew\LBH4 in the "Name:" field.  Click "Next"
  • You should see a dialogue box that says "Connect to Andrew.Cornerstone.disciplenet" as the title and "Connecting to andrew".  Here, you will need to enter your Network user name and password.  This is a little different than the network user name and password you entered to authenticate.  Here you will need to type in "Disciplenet\username", substituting your user name for username.  From the John Smith example, you would type "Disciplenet\j0123456".  Then click on OK.
  • You will then get a message titled "Connect to Printer".  Click Yes.
  • Choose if you want this printer to be your default printer or not, then click "Next".
  • Click Finish.
