Fill out the following form to add your new printer.

- Driver: Select the correct driver from the drop down list. If the driver does not exist for the printer you are trying to setup please see the Creating a Driver article to add a new driver.
- Location: The location or inventory organization that the printer will reside. If you don't see the location you need for the printer, please see the Creating a Location article to add a new location.
- IP Address: Enter the IP address from the actual printer you are trying to setup.
- Port: The printer port or print server port if other than 9100.
- Oracle Printer Type: This will display a list of Oracle Printer Types from your default connection for the instance you are adding the printer to. If the list is empty make sure you setup a default connection for your instance before you add any printers. See Creating a Connection for details on creating a database connection for your instance.
