Printing Services (Staff and Faculty)

IITS connects SMU users to appropriate shared printing resources in the campus through IITS’s Print Queue Services.

Staff Printing

The service enables the sharing of printing resources such as a networked colour printer or networked scanner/fax that has printing facilities amongst authorised users who are joined to the SMU network. Users may print via the Print Queue from their desktops or wirelessly via their notebooks.

Faculty and staff may print to any of the department/office printing resources within SMU as long as these resources are connected to the SMU network (standalone printers do not apply) and they are authorised or granted the access to link to/print from the printer.

How to setup network printer(s)?

Please follow the link below to setup printer on your machine.

Procedure to setup and use Secure Print features on the printer

The secure print feature ensures that only the person who prints the document has access to the document.
When a print job is submitted, the printout will be stored temporarily at the printer and the document will only be printed when you key in the secure print pin code at the printer.

Standalone Printing

Support for standalone printers is restricted to Schools and departments, and to SMU acquired printers only. Funding and cost of repairs and replacements are to be borne by the respective Schools, departments and users.

 

Specification

The Printing Services as provided by IITS are specified as follows:

Staff Network Printing (Windows platform)

  • Provide the coordination and setup services for new network printers, as well as relocation and troubleshooting of network printing problems.
  • Requests may be made for other services relating to Staff Network Printing and Print Queue such as creation, deletion, adding and removing of user accesses via email (helpdesk@smu.edu.sg) at the IT Help Centre.

Terms of Use

Users of the Printing Services as provided by IITS are to abide by the following terms of use:

Staff Network Printing (Windows platform)

  • The above service by IITS is only applicable to network-enabled models of printers only (standalone printers do not apply), and IITS will not connect printers that are not compatible to run on the SMU networks.
  • All new printer models must be installed or come provided with vendor certified Windows Server 2008 (2008R2) printer drivers. IITS will not be able to install these drivers as these drivers are specific to the particular model in question.
  • A new Print Queue is required for any new networked or relocated printer to be shared.
  • To apply for a new Print Queue, users are to provide the location and a list of user IDs that will be accessing the printer.
