Printers
Information about any printer accessible within the Noisebridge network should be listed here. If you're adding a new printer, a good suggestion would be to post user/password information physically onto the printer and to email our rack list.
If you need to connect to a printer try searching for printers within your OS's printer config doodad. Currently they should automagically show up, if not see what tossing around the IP address of a printer can do for you.
HP LaserJet 5Si MX (treechopper)
- IP: 172.30.0.6
Speaks the usual JetDirect stuff on port 9000. Supports PCL and Postscript. See the Network page for the current address.
Step-by-step setup
Find your computer's list of printers. Add a new printer. Choose to add it under IPP protocol rather than a direct USB connection. The IP address (as of June 5) is 172.30.0.6 .
For Mac (OS X 10.4+)

- System Preferences
- Print & Fax
- Printing
- Use the "plus" sign below the list of printers to add a printer.
- New window comes up: "Printer Browser." Click "IP" tab, not "Default".
- Under "Protocol" dropdown, select IPP.
- Enter IP address below it: 172.30.0.6 . Computer will validate it, and should identify it as HP Laserjet 5Si. The default printing (Gimp) works for me, but as mentioned the PCL and Postscript options are available.
- Click "add", close extra window.
- Back in "Print&Fax", at "Selected Printer in Print Dialog" pick this printer. Or, when you go to print something, choose 172.30.0.6 as your printer among your options.
