How to Use the CISER Research Nodes: Printing
HOW TO PRINT FROM A CISER RESEARCH NODE:
- Printing to locally
attached printers *:
- Note: This method works with either Remote Desktop Web Connection or the Remote Desktop Client on your local computer.
- The default for both is set to allow printer connections.
- To confirm this on the Remote Desktop Client select the "Options" tab -->then under "Local Devices" be sure that the "printers" box is checked.
- Connect to
a CISER Research node to see if the print driver for your local
printer is installed.
- Start
--> Settings --> Printers.
- If your printer IS listed you should be able to print directly from CISER Research to your local printer(s).
- If your printer is NOT shown in the current list of printers, send ciser@cornell.edu a message containing your specific printer model information and ask to have the printer driver installed.
- example: "Please install the print driver for Epson Stylus C80 series on the CISER Research nodes"
- Start
--> Settings --> Printers.
- Contact ciser@cornell.edu for
details. You will need to know the name of the server to
which you are attached, as well as the share name of the printer.
Note: If for some reason you are unable to print from the CISER Research nodes you have the option of transferring the files to your local computer and printing from there.
