Color Laser Printing

• In floor 2 there is a modern powerful color laser printer/copier
  • It is located in the hallway, so it can be accessed by anybody
  • You need a copy-card to authenticate, ask secretary or staff for our copy card

• The printer prints PS files, so convert your document to PS, to make sure everything will be printed as you expect it:

pdf2ps myfile.pdf
ps2ps myfile.ps myfile2.ps

• The second call to ps2ps will convert the ps file to a better structured ps file. The printer might handle that better.
• Now open the ps file and make sure everything looks as expected.

• Open the print-tool

gtklp myfile2.ps

• Make some settings:
  • General: Set Printer to "ricoh"
  • PPD: Set a Document Server Password down at the bottom. Write it down. You'll need it at the printer.
• -> Print

• Go down to the printer.
• Insert the copy card, try different sides until it snaps in with a click-noise.
• On the left side on the panel, press the 2nd button (the one below "kopie")
• Select your document on the touch screen
  • enter the password you have selected before
  • Press "Zum Druckerfenster" on the right
  • Activate "2-seit. Kopie Oben-Oben" and "Sortieren"
  • Then start with the big green button
