 then it seemed more stable to switch to nfs3. This is done in '/etc/nfsmount.conf'. Please ask the administrator for such a fix.
+===== Issues printing to the copy machine =====
+Most of the issues are due to incorrect code sent to the copy machine.
+If you experience problems printing from KDE or command line, follow these instructions:
+== Kde: ==
+For some reason KDE incorrectly writes the options for this printer. This is a KDE bug against Canon drivers.
+  - Edit the following file: <code>~/.cups/lpoptions</code>
+  - If there is a line regarding ''copy-t'' or ''copy-n'', remove that line. Sample correct file is as follows:<file>
+Default printer
+</file>
+  - If you want to specify custom options for the printer, set them in KDE, but then check the content of ''lpotions'' again, it should be something like:<file>
+Dest copy-n ColourModel=Colour UserID=None UserPassword=None
+Dest copy-t ColourModel=Colour UserID=None UserPassword=None
+Default printer
+</file>
+== Commandline: ==
+It is good to test if printing works by command line.
+To pass the codes to the print queue (should not be needed after you do the
+KDE thing above, but in any case) issue the following:
+''lpr -o UserID=<code> -o UserPassword=<code> -Pcopy-t yourfile''
+It seems the driver for this printer is different than the previous one
+and KDE always tries to fallback to some weird default.
