Support for networked printers
Information Technology Services (ITS) provides support for networked Multi-Function Printers (MFP), often leased from Lewan or Ricoh.
Support ITS provides:
- Installing department printers on MSU Denver computers.
- Troubleshooting errors on an MSU Denver computer or printer that is preventing successful printing.
- Granting security group access to department office managers who control access to their printers.
- Configuring and maintaining the network jacks your departmental printers connect to.
- Once your department has set up a lease with Lewan, please submit a New Printer Purchase & Setup request to have ITS configure your leased printer settings before the printer is delivered to you.
Support Xerox or Ricoh provides when you lease a printer:
- Ink/toner replacements
- Repair on physical hardware malfunctions
Personal computers:
- Networked printers cannot be installed on personal devices, only MSU Denver-owned devices.

Support on non-networked printers ("desktop printers") or personal printers
ITS provides limited, best-effort connectivity support for non-networked or personal printers.
Best-effort support:
- Desktop printers cannot be enabled for wireless printing (this is a security protocol). However, ITS can assist with driver installations via a USB cable connection.
- ITS will provide best-effort to install a home printer driver on an MSU Denver computer.
- ITS does not provide hardware maintenance or ink for printers (unless it's a computer lab).
Requirements
- Printer Support is designed for employees or students unable to connect to a printer from an MSU Denver computer.
