Print Documents Outside Terminal Room

User can not only print documents by computers in terminal room, but also any other computers!

首先要設定印表機，請參考《印表機設定》

選擇你設定好的印表機按列印之後，一樣要登入印表系統，也會在列印佇列上看到要列印的檔案

只是當你選擇要列印的文件時，就會出現如下的錯誤訊息

因為預設值是只能用同一 IP 來進行列印，所以必須設定擁有者，才能在不同 IP 下列印文件。所以點選擁有者然後勾選要列印的文件，再按 Set Owner

當佇列中的 Owner 變成使用者的學號就表示設定成功，之後只要到終端機室登錄印表系統，再按列印，就可以馬上印出文件囉～ （點矩陣印表機還要到印表機旁的電腦，再點選要列印的文件，才能印出文件）

※ 列印過程如遇到問題可詢問服務台值班工讀生。

PDF轉檔

印表系統內，還有提供將檔案轉成PDF的服務唷～不過一樣要先設定印表機

在控制台內的印表機與傳真，點選新增印表機進行下一步：

選取連接到這台電腦的本機印表機，並取消自動偵測並安裝我的隨插即用印表機

選取建立新的連接埠，類型選擇Standard TCP/IP Port

接下來跳出視窗，要設定連接埠

輸入印表機的 IP 位址，IP 位址為 140.115.195.7

連結埠需選自訂，點選設定

設定通訊協定選用 LPR ，佇列的名稱填入 pdf ，並且啟用 LPR 位元組計數，然後按確定

於是就會出現完成新增連結埠的畫面

接下來要選擇要安裝的印表機驅動程式時，建議使用 Apple 的彩色 PostScript 雷射印表機，如 Apple Color LW 12/660 PS

印表機名稱可設為 PDF，依個人需求看是否需要設成預設的印表機

完成新增印表機之後，就可以開始使用PDF的轉檔功能

在列印時選擇PDF專用印表機，然後登入印表系統，就可以看到檔案在使用者區的列印佇列中，點選要列印的文件

出現是否要列印的畫面，點選Yes

然後按 PDF ，即可看到轉成PDF的文件，可依需要選擇要下載或是要刪除

也可直接用右鍵點選檔案，選擇另存目標，就可以看到轉成PDF的檔案囉～
