Printing: Add/Remove a Network Printer on a St. Thomas PC

St. Thomas offers two methods of printing from your work computer:

1. You can choose to print immediately as traditional printing.
2. You can use the Follow-Me printing feature, which allows you to have your document sent to a virtual queue that you can swipe in and pick-up later at a multi-functioning printer (MFP, i.e. copier/scanner) when convenient. This is also a great option for keeping your files confidential. Learn more about FollowMe printing. 

We recommend setting up both methods onto your work computer which follow the same setup process.
