This instruction provides instructions on how our staff and PG students connect a Windows computer to the GTIIT shared print queues and then release their jobs on the public MFPs on campus.
Before you begin
- GTIIT printers are available only inside the GTIIT network. Please do not use any personal VPN, proxy or accelerator when you print.
- Connect your computer to Wi-Fi "eduroam" or "GTIIT-SEC" with your GTIIT account, or to a wired network point on campus.
- Network printing is not officially supported on Android devices, so please use a computer or GTIIT Web Print - How To Print From Your Own Device
- For Mac or iOS devices, please follow the separate guide "Print from macOS or iOS using AirPrint.
Add GTIIT printers on Windows
On your Windows computer,
open File Explorer (not a web browser). In the address
bar, type \\print.gtiit.edu.cn and press Enter.
- If you are using a GTIIT-managed computer that is joined to the GTIIT domain, the printer list
appears directly. Double-click "Staff-Print-Q" and
"Staff-ColorPrint-Q". Windows installs the drivers and both
printers are added to your printer list.
- If you are using a personal Windows computer that is not in the GTIIT domain, a login window appears. Log in as:
- Username: gtiit\username
- Password: your GTIIT
password
After login, the printer list appears. Double-click "Staff-Print-Q" and/or "Staff-ColorPrint-Q". Windows installs the drivers and the selected printer is added to your printer list.
If you can't add the printers to your Windows computer, please follow the instruction provided here - GTIIT Printer Connection Issues On Personal Computers
Print and release your job
- Open the document you want to print and press Ctrl+P (or use the Print menu).
- In the printer list, select "Staff-Print-Q" for black and white, or "Staff-ColorPrint-Q" for color if available to you. Confirm the settings and click Print.
- Go to a GTIIT public printer, sign in with your campus card or account on the device screen, find your held job in the list and release it to print.
- Log out from the device after printing. For detailed steps on operating the MFP itself, please see "How to use MFP".
