Network Printers
Most network printers are accessed through a printer spooler and a related printer queue on a printer server. The main printer spooler is:
printers.sissa.it
SISSA NETWORK PRINTER MAP AT SANTORIO
Building A, main section which is in front of the carpark
The printer name is based on the place where the printer is located and on its type.
For example: on the first floor you can find ps1lc
- ps = it is an abbreviation to identify all the network printers;
- 1 = floor. Level number;
- l = zone. This is the first letter of the word left (standing with your back to the sea), m is for middle (in the center of the building), r is for right.
- c = type. There is a c because it is a color printer. The black and white (b/w) printers have no letters after the zone letter.
