Printing to tree-eater

Next House's printer, accurately named "tree-eater", is located in the Athena cluster on the first floor, on the direct right when you come in the main entrance. If you have any trouble setting up your computer to print to tree-eater, follow these instructions:

For any OS - Quickprint

The least-effort way to print from your laptop to any printer (tree-eater or otherwise) is with QuickPrint: http://quickprint.mit.edu/ Click "Install a network printer" and follow the instructions. (Alternately, you can just upload PDFs and print them.) QuickPrint is a SIPB service, not an IS&T service; for help, contact quickprint@mit.edu.

For Windows XP

You'll first need to download Kerberos (if you don't have it) from
https://wserv.mit.edu/fcgi-bin/softcount?product=mit/win/mit-kfw-3.2.2.msi
install it, reboot for good measure, and then install KLP from
https://wserv.mit.edu/fcgi-bin/softcount?product=mit/win/mit-klp-1.0.1.msi
When you have both of them installed, follow the directions here to set up the printer "tree-eater" (or "tree-eater2" for double-sided printing) as an HP LaserJet 8150 PS.

For PowerPC Mac

You can download KLPR from http://web.mit.edu/klpr-osx/www/
Click "Download" on the left. You'll need the Kerberos Extras if you don't have them; the link is on that page, as is a link to installation instructions.

For Intel Macs & Windows Vista

There is no software for Kerberized printing for Intel Macs or Windows Vista, due to the way that Microsoft and Apple (independently) changed their printing/Kerberos support in the operating system. You can use QuickPrint or print from the clusters.

Problems? Concerns?

Contact the RCCs via rcc.mit.edu to report the problem. If tree-eater is out of toner or paper, or you are no longer able to print, contact tree-eater@mit.edu.
