This will describe how to connect to the Algonquin College Printers from a Windows machine.
We have created a script file to automate the process for you.
Download the installer HERE
Double click the installer to run it.
Enter your college username and password when prompted. PLEASE NOTE: after you click Next there is a delay (up to 30 seconds) while it verifies your username and password.
If you are getting a message that Username/Password is Invalid there may be a firewall preventing the connection. Try disabling it for a few minutes.
Click Install. The install takes about 5 minutes as it installs PaperCut, and adds the 2 FindMe Printers
Click Finish
Now in your print dialog boxes you will see 2 new printers (WO_Findme_Printer and WO_Findme_Colour). These are the Konica Minolta printers you see in the hallways or access centers. After you click print you need to go to the printer and tap your student card to start the printing.
There are also some older printers in classrooms that do not support the tap feature. We call them Direct Printers. There is an icon on your desktop called Algonquin College Direct Printers. You can open this to see a list of other printers. Find the one with your room number, right click it, and select Connect. This will add that printer to your print dialogs.
