Adding the printer on a Windows 7 PC

To use Peage, follow these steps: Click: Start -> Devices and printers -> add a printer (at the top) Click ‘Add a network, wireless or Bluetooth printer’ as below:

Click ‘The printer that I want isn’t listed’ as below:

Enter:

\\payprint01.ru.nl\RicohMP5000

As below, and click ‘next’:

You will be asked for credentials. Use your Radboud login details with ru\ prefixed to your s-number, e.g.:

ru\s1234567
*********** (your password for Osiris, Blackboard etc)

As below, and click ‘OK’:

Click ‘next’ and then ‘finish’ in the following windows. The Peage printer should now be available to you, for example as ‘Ricoh Aficio MP 5000 on payprint01.ru.nl’ in Word, illustrated below.

The printer can be found on the left of the entrance hall (ground floor):

Adding the printer on a Macintosh

Peage does not support the native printing method for Macintoshes (Cups or IPP printing). There is a 'Workaround' that uses 'Windows Printing'. The procedure does not allow for errors, when making an error you will have to delete the printer and start all over again, which is not very user friendly.

• Open “System Preferences”, select “Print & Fax”

• Press the ”+” button, it will open the “Printer Browser”
• Click in the Toolbar on "Advanced" (if unavailable: right click on the menu en choose "Customize Toolbar... ", drag the "Advanced" icon into the Toolbar)

• Enter requested data:
  • Type: Windows
  • URL: smb://payprint01.ru.nl/RicohMP5000
  • Device: Another Device
  • Name: RicohMP5000
  • Location: HG00.038
  • Print Using: Ricoh MP 5000 PS or, in case the driver can not be found, Generic postscript Printer.

• Click “Add”.

Whenever trying to use this printer the message 'On Hold (Authentication required)' is reported in 'RicohMP5000' printer job list.
Click on 'Resume'. A dialog requesting your credential will pop up.
Provide your U/S/E number, preceded by your domain, e.g. 'ru\u123456' or 'b-fac\science-account' and supply the corresponding password.

Adding the printer on a Linux PC

Peage does not support the native printing method for Linux (Cups or IPP printing). There is a 'Workaround' that uses 'Windows Printing'. Below a short decription how to install the printer on Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid Lynx). This procedure might work for other recent Linux systems using the Gnome Desktop.

• In the top menu go via "System" to "Administration" and click on "Printing“

• Click above the field with printers on the "Add" button
• A window "New Printer" emerges, select "Network Printer" and then "Windows Printer via SAMBA"
• On the right side you can provide required data
  • SMB Printer: smb://payprint01.ru.nl/RicohMP5000
  • Authentication: Prompt user if authentication is required

• Klik op "Forward"
• A search for drivers is performed. In the next window you have to choose the printer brand: Ricoh
• Click on "Forward". Now choose the printer type: on the left side Aficio MP 5000 and on the right side the apropriate driver
• Click op "Forward". Provide the extra data:
  • Printer Name: RicohMP5000
  • Description: Ricoh Aficio MP 5000
  • Location: HG00.038

• Click on "Apply" en select "No" on the question "Would you like to print a test page?"

As soon as you use the printer, a window will pop up showing the message 'Authentication is required to print ...' and also asking for your credentials.
At "Username" type your U/S/E number, preceded by your domain, eg 'ru\u123456' or 'b-fac\science-account' and at "Password" your password,
