Staff Computers

Staff members “grab” the same virtual computer each time they log off and back on. If something goes wrong with a staff VM computer the technology department can simply assign a new one and detach the faulty virtual computer.

Staff members can:

  • Set up the Internet Explorer home page.
  • Set their start menu to look a specific way and can add programs to it.
  • Be assigned to specific campus printers.
  • Staff members have two computer group choices: Classworks or Staff

Setting Staff Default Printer

On staff thin clients each staff member must set your own default printer.

  • Click the Start button and then choose the printer icon to view the printer choices you have.
  • Right-click on the printer you want to set as you default printer and choose “Set as Default Printer”.

If you do not see a printer in the printer list contact your ITS or call the Help Desk. You will need to know the desired printer identification (name) and location if you call the Help Desk.
