This page describes how to add a printer to a Windows PC at DTU Compute. For a short general description of the printing systems and list of printers available at DTU Compute please refer to this link.

Windows 7 (32 and 64 bit), Windows XP and Vista 32 bit are supported using the winprint server. Vista 64 bit is not supported and must use the optional method described below. Windows 8 (32 and 64 bit) are not fully tested but basic printing features have been tested succesfully.

There is a minor difference installing printers whether your Windows PC is joined to DTU's Windows domain (win.dtu.dk, in short "WIN") or not. Pressing Windows key + Pause/Break key will open system information. If "win.dtu.dk" is set under Domain, your PC is joined to the domain.

If your still in doubt please contact ITSupport.
