An important note when adding a copier to a virtual session -

Although anyone can add a copier to a virtual instance, this copier will be removed after the user has logged off. In order for a new copier to be permanently added to a virtual, a member of the IT Helpdesk team must be contacted so they can add the copier using admin rights. This rule does not apply to standalone Desktops and Laptops, copiers can be added without the assistance of the IT Helpdesk team; however, we are available to help in the event there are any complications or questions.


To add a new copier, start by viewing one of the two print servers depending on your location within the city:

  • \\copps (to open the list of copiers available outside of PSB)
  • or \\psb-ps (to open the list of copiers available ONLY at PSB)

Start by opening the Start Menu and typing one of the two options into the search text-box.



With one of the two print servers selected, a new window will open up with a list of available copiers to use. 
Scroll through the list and right click on the copier you want to use, selecting 'Connect..." to add the copier.


Now that the copier has been added, the available copiers can be viewed from the "Devices and Printers" window.

Users can navigate to this area by opening the Start Menu and typing "Devices" or "Printers" into the search text-box, selecting "Devices and Printers" from the list of options.



From this window, a list of installed/connected copiers will populate under the "Printers and Faxes".

To set the new copier as the default printer, right-click on the desired copier and select "Set as default printer" from the drop-down menu.
