- | ==== To print to the Copier Canon C5255i ==== | ||
- | |||
- | The copier can only operate with codes. There are two codes depending on the faculty you belong. | ||
- | Please do not switch queues. | ||
- | |||
- | **If the queue you're using doesn't work. please contact me.** | ||
- | |||
- | If you don't know the code, contact Katarina. | ||
- | |||
- | === Linux Workstations and Clusters === | ||
- | |||
- | The following copier queues should be used on **workstations**: | ||
- | |||
- | ^ Use this queue... ^ ... if you belong to ^ | ||
- | | **copy-n** | N-fak | | ||
- | | **copy-t** | LTH | | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | If you experience problems printing from KDE or command line, follow these instructions: | ||
- | |||
- | == Kde: == | ||
- | |||
- | - Go to //Print// | ||
- | - select the copy machine (either //copy-n// or //copy-t// depending which faculty you are) | ||
- | - choose //Properties -> Advanced// | ||
- | - Scroll the menu until you find <code>User Password (max ...) | ||
- | User ID (max)</code> and set both to ''None'' | ||
- | |||
- | == Commandline: == | ||
- | |||
- | To pass the codes to the print queue (should not be needed after you do the | ||
- | KDE thing above, but in any case): | ||
- | |||
- | ''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. | ||
