OIT Desktop Computing Hardware Standards
Description:
To focus service and support, the Office of Information Technology (OIT) has adopted the following standards. Standards will govern the Desktop computing hardware and software that OIT will recommend for procurement. The standards will also determine the levels of service and support that the Desktop Support Group will deliver. Standards are also used to determine the items sold in the UT Arlington Computer Store. Desktop Support will provide information on these specific products, and get quotes for you. Call the Helpdesk at X 2-2208 to put in a call ticket for assistance or e-mail your request to helpdesk@uta.edu.
Recommended Hardware:
NOTE : All new equipment being placed on the network must be purchased network-ready. This especially pertains to printers being placed on the network which must be purchased network-ready with a factory-installed, integrated, internal network interface card. All of the listed printers are base models. Visit HP's website, www.hp.com, for model specific network, duplex, and paper handling options.

Printers
Please note : External print devices such as an HP JetDirect box will not be supported.
If clients purchase any non-supported printers, they will be advised to return them and purchase an OIT recommended printer. If clients choose to keep this non-supported printer we will show the client how-to perform a default local installation to print via LPR-IP# and no guarantees that all features will work. When problems occur with these printers, clients are advised to un-install and re-install to see if problem gets resolved. If the problem persist, clients can call OIT Helpdesk to put in a call ticket in order to get a recommendation on purchasing a new supported network printer. OIT does not support these printers and we do not have any outside vendors that will work on them.-
