Printer Setup for Apple macOS

 

On Department-Managed Computers

Department-managed computers running Apple macOS should already have all of the department printers pre-configured for immediate use.

In any macOS application:

  • Go to the "File" menu and select the "Print..." option.
  • In the "Printer:" popup menu on top, select the department printer you want to print to.

 

On Self-Managed Computers

Your computer/device must be connected to a UCSD wired/wireless network in order to print or you will get errors about being unable to connect to the printer.  For WiFi, you must be connected to the "UCSD-PROTECTED" WiFi.  Printing will NOT work while connected to the "eduroam" or "UCSD-GUEST" WiFi networks.

To configure your own computer to print to a department printer, follow the below instructions:

 

Quick Printer Setup

  • Download and install the latest HP Printer Drivers for macOS from Apple.
  • "Apple" menu > "System Settings/Preferences..." > "Printers & Scanners" icon > "+" button
  • Printer Type: IP
  • Protocol: HP Jetdirect - Socket
  • Address: (See Department Printers List, type in the printer's IP Address ("172.16.145.91", etc.) OR Hostname ("math-prn-p6016.ucsd.edu", etc.)
  • Queue: (blank)
  • Name: p6016 (or color6016, etc.)
