XP Wireless Printing

This is a guide to help you get wireless printing set up on your Windows XP based laptop. Make sure that you have set up your wireless connection for the schools network. Directions to do so can be found at this website. Your documents are printed in the Open Lab in the Library Building.


Please note that the printing services are provided to support your course work and college-related tasks. Please do not use the printing services for other documents.

  1. Turn your machine on and check to make sure that you are connected to the schools wireless internet system. You should see a small icon in the lower right of your screen that looks like two computers sitting next to each other like figure B without the red X on it, or it may look like figure A.
  2. Tray Icons
  3. Go to Start --> Printers and Faxes
  4. On the left hand side of the screen is the "Add a new printer" link, click on it.
  5. The Wizard will open up click on "Next" The next screen will ask if you want to add a local or network printer make sure the network printer is selected. Click "Next"
