---+ Printing From OS X

OS X machines use the linux printer server for their printing. Each printer needs to be individually installed on each machine. The procedure is as follows:

   1. Open the 'Print & Fax' window from the System Preferences. Then select add new printer (the + sign near the bottom left)<br>
      <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/print_and_fax.png" alt="print_and_fax.png" width='708' height='567' /><br>
   1. In the 'Add Printer' window select 'Internet Printing Protocol - IPP' for the protocol and fill in ppecups.physics.gla.ac.uk for the Address, /printers/<i>printer name</i>  for the Queue and then _printer name_ for the Name. See [[GroupPrinters]] for the list of available printers. An example adding the printer ld is shown below:<br>
      <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/adding_ld.png" alt="adding_ld.png" width='600' height='514' /><br>
   1. A final window will then request if the printer has a duplex unit.<br>
      <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/duplex.png" alt="duplex.png" width='474' height='462' /><br>
