EZ-Print Printer request

This online request form is used to add a new printer to the EZ-Print service.

Important considerations for setting up one of your printers to use the EZ-Print service:

  1. Your printer must be configured to run the LPR protocol.
  2. If you have a local firewall or ACL (Access Control List) on your network, be sure these EZ-Print Application ports and protocols are open for this service. See: Servers and Ports Used by Cornell Services
  3. For security purposes, please consider placing your networked printers in private address space such as the 10-space network associated with each subnet on campus. For more information on this, please see: 10-Space IP Addressing at Cornell

Desired EZ-Print printer name: (maximum of 8 characters)
This is the name you will use to send printouts to this printer.
On CornellC, for example, this name goes after the prt= parameter on the TAG command.
If the name you choose is already in use, you will be asked to choose another name.
Tip: It's helpful to use your department or building name and room number, e.g. chem122

Printer Info:
Printer location: Building and room number, e.g. 721 Rhodes Hall
Printer host name: IP address or registered hostname of the printer or print server, e.g. prtsrv1.cit.cornell.edu
Printer queue name: Needed only if you are sending the print output to your own print server.
Separator pages (cover) desired: Yes No
Check the "Yes" box if you want EZ-Print to print a separator page (also called a "cover" page) at the beginning of each print job to help in locating where one printout ends and the next begins.
Printer for use with the APPS purchasing system: Yes No
Checking the "Yes" box sends a request to APPS maintenance staff to add this printer to the APPS printer table. If the printer does not appear in the APPS printer table within 2 or 3 days of the printer being added to EZ-Print, please contact Dennis Butts, db18@cornell.edu or 255-5646.
