Printing
Introduction
[ref: http://www.hp.com/cposupport/networking/support_doc/bpj07072.html]
Printer setup in Windows XP™ is pretty much straight
forward. If you follow the instruction in the link above you should be able to set up printing on an HP TCP/IP enabled printer.
Outlined here are additional setup instructions that are unique to printing from staff computers at UIC's Daley Library.
Warning: If you are uncomfortable doing this please send a message to Lib-Sys and we will set up your printing for you. This also applies to situations where our expected results do not occur for specialized printing like Binding etc.,
