Print Management Console Lab

In this lab we will create a GPO that deploys a printer to your Windows 10 machine.

The first step is to install a printer on your server.

  1. Using CPTE230A and the Print Console install the AdvLab.cs.southern.edu printer on your server (You can use nslookup to find the IP address).

    1. Find CPTE230A under print servers
    2. Right Click CPTE230A, and select add printer
    3. Add a TCP/IP ...

    4. Input the IP address for AdvLab.cs.southern.edu, and click next

    5. Make sure it is shared with a reasonable name and click next
  2. Make sure you share the printer on the server (there is a check box for this when you create it).
  3. Create an organizational unit called "clients" and place your windows 10 machine in it. (Done in AD Users and Computers)
  4. Create a GPO that will apply to your windows 10 machine "Computer" that deploys the printer you created and link it to the OU created above.
