How To:

  • Add an Access Code for a Konica Minolta Printer on Windows

Applies To:

  • Staff
  • Faculty
  • Student Employees

Steps:

Note: Some departments (ESU KC, HYPR, Athletics, Library, Music, Business 4th & 5th floors) have their copiers locked down for printing. This means a code will need to be entered in their printer preferences before they can print. This is the same code that is used for making copies. Your code is the same pin that you use to make copies. Not sure that you have a code? Contact your department's admin assistant.


1. Open the Control Panel and go to View Devices and Printers, this is located under Hardware and Sound.
