Installing the Toshiba e-studio 280 Printer
The Toshiba e-studio 280 Printer/Copier, located on the fourth floor, is available to HU students through the wireless network. The following steps are necessary to configure the printer for use on your computer.
These instructions were created on a computer running Windows XP, with service pack 2 installed. Therefore, slight differences may be noticed when attempting an install on a different platform. If you need assistance, please contact the helpdesk at HelpDesk@HarrisburgU.net or 717-901-5177.
**Before You Attempt To Install**
If your computer has Norton Internet Security installed and running, you will need to temporarily disable it to successfully install the printer. The program will block your computer from downloading the driver from the print server.
You can disable it by right clicking on the yellow globe, found by your clock on the systray portion of the taskbar. Choose Disable Internet Security and choose the amount of time you wish to disable it.
You may then proceed with the installation. NIS can be re-enabled by right clicking on the globe again and choosing Enable Internet Security.
Installation Instructions
To install the printer you will need to open the Printers and Faxes setup window. This is accessible by clicking on the Start button and clicking on Printers and Faxes. If you do not have this option on your Start menu, it can be found by entering the Control Panel and choosing Printers and Other Hardware.
Clicking this should open the Printers and Faxes setup window. This window displays currently installed printers, as well as options to add and configure additional devices.
Once in the Printers and Faxes window you will need to click on Add a printer, under Printer Tasks in the menu on the left side.
The Welcome window of the Add New Printer Wizard will appear. Click Next to continue.
On the Local or Network Printer portion of the wizard, choose the radio switch next to: A network printer, or a printer attached to another computer and click Next.
Now you will need to specify a printer. Choose the radio switch next to Connect to this printer. In the Name box enter \\e200l\pcl6 and click Next.
** Important Note on this step **
After clicking next, it may take up to 5 minutes or more to continue. During this time, your computer is downloading drivers to install the printer. Please be patient and allow the installation to complete!
When the drivers are fully downloaded, your computer will complete the installation on its own. Once installed, the wizard will ask if you wish to make this printer your Default Printer. Choose Yes or No, but keep in mind if you choose yes, it will override your current default printer and may affect your printing at locations away from HU. After selecting Yes or No, click Next to continue.
The next screen will confirm the installation and should list pcl6 on E200L as the installed printer. Click Finish to finalize the installation of the printer.
When the installation is complete the pcl6 on E200L should appear as a network printer icon in your Printer and Faxes window. If you chose it as your default printer, it will have a black check circle with checkmark beside the icon.
This printer should now be available for use in all your applications, while you are connected to the HU wireless network. The following example is to show how you would select the printer, in the drop down box, when printing from Microsoft Word.
