Basic macOS Printing, macOS 10.12+

NRAO-managed macOS 10.12+ systems support CUPS printer installation via Managed Software Center (hereafter "MSC"). No printers appear on the default view - the "Software" tab - in MSC.

To view available printers, select the "Printers" category from either the "Categories" listing on the right side of the "Software" tab or the "Categories" tab.

2_msc_print

To initiate the installation of a specific available printer, simply select the corresponding "Install" button.

3_msc_printers

When the components required to install the selected printer have downloaded, MSC should switch over to the "Updates" tab for the final installation.

4_msc_updates

Select "Update All" to complete the installation.

6_msc_printers

Printers, once installed, will show an "Installed" label within MSC; additionally, the "Install" buttons change to "Remove" for printer removal.
