==== IPP ====
== Usage ==


If you want to print something, the printer should appear on your printer list if you use Linux. Printing server (CUPS) is [[Host:figurehead|figurehead]] and the printer is shared via IPP (Internet Printing Protocol).
All network printers are available via http://printserver.chaosdorf.dn42


==== FTP ====
=== Linux ===


Printing is also possible by uploading a PostScript file to the [ftp://printer/PORT1 FTP service] on the printer.
Printers should be discovered and availble for addition.


==== CUPS ====
On the command line, set our server as CUPS server


You can setup printing on [http://localhost:631/admin?op=add-printer your system] with the following URL:
$ export CUPS_SERVER=printserver


socket://printer
Or, directly print on a printer, ie.


A [http://openprinting.org/ppd-o-matic.cgi?driver=pxlmono&printer=HP-LaserJet_2100&show=0 PPD] file is needed for installation.
$ lp -h printserver -d HP4500 output.pdf


=== Administration ===
=== OS X ===


Ask the friendly [[Admins|networking team]] for assistance, if the printing server gets stuck or questions remain.
Printers should be discovered and availble for addition.


=== Services on the printer ===

There is a Java based [http://printer/ web frontend] on the printer. It sucks.
Unknown.
 
[telnet://printer Telnet] is also available.
 
 
== Color Inkjet ==
 
There is also a color inkjet printer available, [http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/product?cc=de&lc=de&product=60096 HP Deskjet 930C]. Connect it to your computer with an LPT or USB cable and see http://www.openprinting.org/printer/HP/HP-DeskJet_930C for help with software drivers.
