Using In-Room Printing from Windows

Note: Window users must use Internet Explorer to set up the online printers. Mozilla and other browsers will not function properly.

The print server will only allow traffic from within I-House’s networks.

You only have to install basic HP Printer software once and the printer will appear as your local printer.

1. Use Internet Explorer and go to http://rcc-printers.ihouseberkeley.org/printers.

Then, double click on the printer you want to use.

2. On the left side under PRINTER ACTIONS, click Connect. Please note, you must use Internet Explorer or you will not see the Connect option.

Click Yes to install the printer driver and the printer installation will begin.

3. As soon as the driver is installed, that’s it.

4. You can print from within your application. Your print job(s) will be held in the RCC print release station for 60 minutes.
