Fetch the Driver

The Ricoh driver is not available from Windows Update. You must download the driver from Ricoh’s website OR…

 

  1.  Use file explorer to navigate to Jukebox on \\chem-diamond3.ad.wsu.edu.

2. Depending on your operation system select the appropriate folder (e.g. If you have a 64 bit processor select the x64 folder)

3. Click on the file in the folder and then a pop-up window will appear and then click Run.

4. Once running click next through the installer and select a place to extract the folder to. (Make sure you remember where you extract it to)

5. Once the extraction is complete you are ready to begin the process of adding the printer to your machine.

 

Add the Printer (Windows 10)

In the preceding step, you downloaded the driver for the Ricoh Pro 907EX. Now you must use Windows’ control panel to add the printer.

      1. Open the control panel. Go to the Devices and Printers applet. Click the Add a printer button.
      2. Click “The printer that I want isn’t listed”
      3. Select “Add a printer using a TCP/IP address or hostname.”
      4. Use diamond5.chem.wsu.edu as the IP address and make sure that “Query the printer and automatically select the driver to use” is not selected.
      5. Select “Have Disk..” – This is where the driver you downloaded earlier will come in to play.
      6. Select “Browse” and navigate to where you saved the driver to. You should eventually get to a file similar to the one below.

      7. Select “OK” to continue using the downloaded driver.
      8. From the options listed, select “RICOH Pro 907EX PCL 6”
      9. If you’ve already had this machine installed, you may get this prompt. Select “Replace the current driver.” If you have not installed this printer in the past, skip this step.
      10. Select “Next” and the printer should now be installed.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       
      11. Once the printer is installed, you will need to set up your PIN with the new printer driver in order to be able to print.
