== Adding printers to Windows XP ==
Log out as unprivileged user and log in as administrator.

This Computer -> Tools -> Map Network Drive '\\regler\windows\windows'

Printers and Faxes -> Add Printer<<BR>>
Select 'Use Network Printer'<<BR>>
Select a 'Printer on the Internet'. Enter URL: `http://lpd.control.lth.se:631/printers/`<''printer''> <<BR>>
where <''printer''> is Kettler, Forsberg, !ForsbergColor, Morison, !MorisonColor or Zapf. Push 'Next'.

In the printer enumeration screen, select 'Use diskette'. Browse to the drive selected above, and then to '!PrinterDrivers', and to an appopriate printer folder. For Forsberg, !ForsbergColor, Morison, !MorisonColor, it is 'RicohMPC3000', and for Kettler and Zapf it is 'MP3005'.
Inside 'RicohMPC3000' select C2500 for Morison and !MorisonColor, and C3000 for Forsberg and !ForsbergColor.

Select 'Properties' for the newly added printer, and check that all paper sizes are selected as A4. Print a test page. Done!!

== Adding printers to Windows 7 ==
Log out as unprivileged user and log in as administrator.

Devices and Printers -> Add a printer -> Add a network, wireless or Bluetooth printer. <<BR>>
Don't bother letting it search for available printers. It will not find any. Instead click
"The printer I want isn't listed." and then "Select a shared printer by name". <<BR>>
Enter `http://lpd.control.lth.se:631/printers/`<''printer''> <<BR>>
where <''printer''> is Kettler, Forsberg, !ForsbergColor, Morison, !MorisonColor or Zapf. Push 'Next'.
You should get a response saying "You've successfully added <''printer''> on
`http://lpd.control.lth.se:631`".

Right click on the printer icon and choose 'Printer properties'. Check that all instances of the paper size is A4 (there are probably at least three places where this choice may be made), and print a test page.

== Adding Printers to Mac ==

In a terminal window enter the commands

`sudo cupsctl BrowseProtocols=all` <<BR>>
`sudo killall -v cupsd`

System Preferences -> Print & Fax <<BR>>
Unlock it if necessary and click the `+` sign to add printers. Select the printers you want (see below) from the group that have the Kind `Shared Printer`, '''''not''''' the Kind `Bonjour Shared`.

== Using the Scanners ==
(to be written)
Since 2022, the large printers/copiers Forsberg, Holmes and Miedinger use pull printing. Submit your document to a server, then walk to the printer of your choice and use your access card to "pull" the document to that certain printer. Instructions for Windows/MacOS users here:

== Printing from the command line ==
(to be translated)<<BR>>
Man väljer skrivare med 'lpr -P<printername>' eller genom att sätta variabeln PRINTER till lämpligt värde (Benton, Benton/Staple, Color, Color/OH, Kettler, Plan_2).
<<BR>>
Skrivaroptioner väljs med 'lpr -o <option>'. Vilka optioner som finns för respektive skrivare, får man genom kommandot 'lpoptions -p <skrivare> -l' Antal kopior väljes med 'lpr -# <antal kopior>'
<<BR>>
Observera! Det går utmärkt att skicka pdf-filer direkt till skrivarna. Man behöver alltså inte skriva ut från acroread eller xpdf.
=== Exempel ===
Följande kommando kan vara lämpligt vid utskrift av kursprogram:<<BR>>
` lpr -P Benton/Staple -# 200 kursprogram.ps`<<BR>>
De skrivare som klarar av dubbelsidig utskrift har det som standard. Vill man ha en enkelsidig utskrift skriver man
<<BR>>` lpr -P Benton -o Duplex=None <filnamn>`
