7. We highly recommend trying to print a test page after adding printers to ensure they were added correctly. Try printing your own document or double click on the printer in the list and choose 'Printer' on the top tool bar and 'Print Test Page'.
If you are unable to print using the above steps, follow these additional steps
Find the printer driver from the manufacturer website and download it. Depending on what type of printer you will go to one of these websites and search for the model: HP Printers (https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/printers) , SHARP Printers (http://www.sharp-world.com/restricted/products/copier/downloads/select_us_driver.html) , CANON Printers (https://www.usa.canon.com/internet/portal/us/home/support/drivers-downloads) . Once you download the file click on it to install it. Then click on the printer you added previously and click on the minus sign. Follow the above steps again until you get to number 5. Here you will now click on use and click select software (see below). Then you can search for the printer's driver that you just installed. After you select the driver you can click add and continue with the above directions.
If you run into any questions with the above directions please reach out to the MERIT Help Desk at support@education.wisc.edu or (608) 265-4773.
On your printer there should be a label with the printer name on. It is usually on a yellow label and the name is in the form of 'department-model'. If there is no label on your printer you should look through the settings for an option that says print configuration page or print network configuration. On the printed page(s) please then look for the 'Host Name' and that will be the printer name. As there are many different models of printers in the School of Education, we can not have directions on how to get the configuration page for every printer on here. For assistance finding the printer name, please contact our help desk at support@education.wisc.edu or (608)265-4773.
