You are standing at the '''2D printer station''' at Noisebridge.


If you need to connect to a printer try searching for printers within your OS's printer config doodad. Currently they should automagically show up, if not see what tossing around the IP address of a printer can do for you.
You see a large format inkjet printer, an inkjet all-in-one and a laser printer.

If it encounters a paper jam, you may be able to clear it by removing the paper cassette and then the sheet-feed tray immediately above it. The jammed sheet should then be accessible for removal. Put the sheet-feed tray and paper cassette back in, and then try to resume or retry your job.


===Step-by-step setup===

Find your computer's list of printers.  Add a new printer.  Choose to add it under IPP protocol rather than a direct USB connection.

*New window comes up: "Printer Browser." Click "IP" tab, not "Default".
**Under "Protocol" dropdown, select IPP.
**Enter IP address below it: 172.30.0.6  .  Computer will validate it, and should identify it as HP Laserjet 5Si.  The default printing (Gimp) works for me, but as mentioned the PCL and Postscript options are available.
**Click "add", close extra window.
*Back in "Print&Fax", at "Selected Printer in Print Dialog" pick this printer.  Or, when you go to print something, choose 172.30.0.6 as your printer among your options.
