Once it's done installing you will see another window open showing the print queue for the copier group you just installed.

Troubleshooting Printer Issues on Windows

If you're having trouble printing to an existing printer that was previously working, it may be that the printer path is not valid anymore. If the printer you're having issue with has a name that ends in .vusd, it will need to be removed and reinstalled without the .vusd suffix.

Example: "VUSD-Copiers on uf-core.vusd" will no longer work. It will need to be removed and reinstalled as "VUSD-Copiers on uf-core"

The next time you print something

Choose VUSD-Copiers as your printer and print a job

Click Secure Print

Click Secure Print on the copier menu

In Conclusion

This is a great and secure way to print items from multiple locations at a site. Print jobs will stay in the queue for 24 hours before they are automatically removed.

If you printed and can't see your job in the print queue, confirmed you are printing to VUSD-Copiers, confirmed you're using the correct ID number and you are still unable to see your print jobs on the secure print page of the copier then please put in a service request stating your name, which site you are trying to print to and the American Business Machines tag number from the front of the copier. - https://servicetickets.vusd.org
