Question for IT Admins in schools regarding print systems and how to use them

Hi gang, This one is for my fellow IT Admins in the school sector. I currently run ALL the IT needs for a small art college in London. One of the biggest questions I am asked every single day is to do with our printing systems. Whether it be how to turn off double sided, print on transparencies, print A3 etc etc. I have all of these documents detailed and accessible via the IT / Moodle page as PDF's. There is not enough room on the walls to print and post such info and it would look horrid on the wall displayed in such a manner in my nice cool computer room. My question is more of a probing one wondering what other IT peeps are doing to ensure their information is actually being read and that the IT person is not endlessly repeating themselves day in day out.

Bear in mind these are university level art students, usually with a low capacity for understanding technology and usually some level of dyslexia. We obviously have a website but that is essentially the same as posting it on Moodle.

certain keys on my keyboard dont work when "cold"

Hi guys, i have a Lenovo Y520-15IKBN (80WK) and certain keys on the keyboard don't work (e,g,h,8,9,Fn...) but only when the weather is cold. for example in the winter it used to work after certain amount of time when i first boot the laptop and stops working when i stop using it for a while, but now that the weather is hot it works just fine except for the first couple of minutes or when its colder. of course i do realise that it has nothing to do with the outside weather but with the temperature of the computer itself. can someone explain to me why this is happening and how it should be fixed as i cannot take it to the tech service until july even though it's still under warranty because i need it for school. ps: an external keyboard works fine.

Old PC with a Foxconn n15235 motherboard needs drivers! Help!!

So my Pc corrupted and I had to fresh install windows on it, but now its missing 3 drivers and one of them is for the Ethernet controller! I've tried searching everywhere for the windows 7 drivers but all I seem to find are some dodgey programs saying they will install it for me. Problem is without the ethernet driver I can't bloody connect to the internet. I've been using a USB to try get some drivers on there, but they just end up being useless programmes . I'm also a bit of a noob at these things, I don't understand where to find the names of things in my PC, I've opened it up but I don't understand whats significant and what isnt. If someone has the drivers and can teach me how to install them I'd be very appreciative! Submitted April 29, 2018 at 02:47PM by darrilsteady https://ift.tt/2r76xMZ
