=== Printing on Windows 11 ===
Windows 11 users can install printers using the following steps.


==Printing to RCS_Copiers or H_Printers==
==== Prerequisite ====
* Connect to the '''''RCS-Community''''' wireless network and login with your Riverdale '''''username''''' and '''''passphrase'''''
* Be on the latest version of Windows.


*After installing the printer from Self Service on a Mac or following the instructions below for PC print your document and select RCS_Copiers or H_Printers.
==== Install RCS_Copiers ====
*If you printed to '''RCS_Copiers''', go to any copier on either campus, log in (by tapping your ID card, using the keyboard, or scanning the QR code) and release your job. It will be available at any copier you walk up to.
#Press the '''''Windows key''''' or open the '''''Start menu''''' and type "\\carbon\"
*If you printed to '''H_Printers''' go to 9/10 2nd floor, science lobby, 5001, or Mow 2nd floor and tap your card on the RF reader on the printer.
#*If you encounter an error, press the '''''Windows key''''' or open the '''''Start menu''''' and type "\\carbon.riverdale.edu\" instead
*Forgot your ID? No problem! Scan the QR code on the copier or printer with your phone (that needs to be connected to RCS-Community), log into the mobile release page and release your job!
#This will prompt for credentials choose '''''More Options''''' and use "riverdale\''username''" (ex. riverdale\mvanmierlo23) and press '''''Enter'''''
#This will bring up a window with all available printers. Double-click '''''the desired printer icon''''' in this window and that should install the printer and appropriate drivers
#Now when trying to print the dialogue should default to '''''RCS_Copiers''''' and the print job will be available any of the copiers. Your print job can be released by scanning your Riverdale ID at the desired copier.
 
Note: ''A small number of our users require the PaperCut Client Application to be running in order to print. If you received an email indicating that you were one of these lucky people, please follow our installation guide sent to you individually.''

===Mobility Print===
To improve the printing experience for Chromebooks, we have enabled Mobility Print. We previously used Google Cloud Print which has proven to be unreliable. With Mobility Print there is a new workflow that students and employees must follow.
