Instructions to connect a local printer to a Plume workstation

Here is how to configure a printer connected locally (USB or paralell port) to a Plume client running p910nd [1] with CUPS running on the server:

connect to port 631 of the server using a web browser (ex.: http://localhost:631)
click on the Printers or Manage printers link
click on the left-down button Add printer
choose a meaning name for the printer (ex.: brother7)
optionally enter the location of the printer (ex.: Local 7)
click on the Continue button
select AppSocket/HP JetDirect device
click on the Continue button
enter the url to access the print server on the client (ex.: socket://ws7013)
click on the Continue button
select the make of the printer (ex.: Brother)
click on the Continue button
select the model and driver of the printer (ex.: HL-4Ve Foomatic/laserjet (recommended) (en))
click on the Continue button
click on the link with the name of the printer (ex.: brother7)
click on the Configure Printer button and configure paper size or whatever other configuration item you want to change
click on the Configure button matching the changes you made

You're done! Your printer should be available to every application (but not necessarily configurable from each application).
