Connecting to new Toshiba Copiers (November 2024)

Overview

This article describes how staff/faculty can connect their Nazareth office computers to the new Toshiba copiers deployed in November 2024.  There are separate instructions for PC and Macintosh users.  Your computer will need to be on campus when connecting to the new copiers. 

Please be sure that all staff, faculty and student workers in your area have and follow these instructions.  NOTE:  If more that one person uses a particular computer (i.e student workers) each user will need to complete the applicable connection steps below.

Due to the large number of print users, we kindly ask that you and others in your area follow these instructions carefully  before calling IT support for assistance.

PC/Windows Users

Option 1: Run the "Connect Toshiba Copiers" Script 

  1. Once the copier you need to connect to has been installed in your area, reboot your PC and log in. 
  2. Employees should notice a script icon on your desktop called: Connect Toshiba Copiers
  3. Double click on it.
  4. A command window will pop up as the script runs.  You can then hit any key to close the window.
  5. The new copier should be connected to your PC.

 

Option 2: Manually connect to new copier

In the event you do not have access to the script (i.e student workers) or if the script fails for some reason,  you can manually connect using the steps below:

  1. First, look up the queue name of the Toshiba copier in your area.  Click here to view list of Toshiba copiers with their respective queue name and location information.
  2. Note the queue name you need to connect to
  3. Press the Windows key +R key
  4. In the Run dialog box, type this command:  \\naz-ps-01\queue name    (The queue name is obtained from the list in step 1)
  5. Click OK.


Example:

Wait a few seconds for the device to be installed.  The Toshiba copier should now be ready for printing.

If the Toshiba device requires a department code, you will be prompted for it when you submit a print job.  Any codes used previously should work for the new Toshiba device.
