| Printing is provided via a cups print server at cups.hep.lu.se . For the moment it is possible to connect machines directly to the printer, provided they belong to known networks (the cabled network or eduroam) but in the future this may not be possible. The reasons are due to national rules of accessing public IT services and are described in this security article: https://www.it.lu.se/it-sakerhet/it-sakerhetsartiklar/sakerhetskonfiguration/ | Printing is provided via a cups print server at cups.hep.lu.se .

| + | ---- | ||
| + | |||
| + | > **Q:** I cannot print via wireless. The printer dialog is stuck with the message "Hold for Authentication" | ||
| + | |||
| + | **A:** Wireless printing requires login due to general security and enforced national rules. It is now possible to print via wifi by using your Particle Physics account also known as "teddi" account (see https://www.hep.lu.se/staff/paganelli/doku.php/it_services:pf#accounts) | ||
| + | |||
| + | In order to insert your login credentials, you need to click on the small round arrow next to the print dialog as in the picture below: | ||
| + | {{ :it_services:pf:holdforauth.png?600 |}} | ||
| + | Then you will be prompted for your username and password. | ||
