Installing the "Follow-Me-Printer"

The "Follow-Me-Printer", which allows you to print to one place and pick up the print job at any printer with a card scanner attached, is installed automatically on any Bethel owned computer. If you want to install the printer on a personal computer, or you need to re-install the printer for some reason, follow these steps:

Windows

Search and select Run and type "\\bsp-prtsrv-h3.its.bethel.edu" into the field. Click OK to open location.
Double-Click on "Follow-Me-Printer" and wait for the install to complete.

Mac

Download the DMG containing the installer using this link: Bethel-Follow-Me-Printer.dmg
- Note: On personal owned computers, you may receive a message saying that you can not install non-appstore mac applications. Follow this article to enable the installation of non-native applications on your personal mac.
Double-click on the "Bethel-Follow-Me-Printer.dmg" file you downloaded to open it.
Double-click on the "Bethel Follow-Me-Printer.pkg" file to start and run the installer.

Linux

Download the installer using this link: Bethel Follow-Me-Printer.run
Open a Terminal window, and type "sudo sh " (notice the space after "sh")
Locate the downloaded file and drag it into the terminal window.
- The result should be something like this:
user@ubuntu:~$ sudo sh '/home/user/Downloads/Bethel Follow-Me-Printer.run'
Hit "Enter".
The printer should now be installed.
The first time you try to print, a window may open asking you to authenticate.
- Enter your Bethel credentials with your username in the form "bu\username".
- Enter your Bethel password.
- You may also choose to select the option to save the password for future printing.
If the authentication window does not show up, open the print queue.
