If you are printing out many slides for studying, see [[How to print multiple slides per page]]
*Choose the model. If you aren't sure, the HP laserjet 5m is a good choice.
*If you have AppleTalk enabled on your Mac you can browse for printers directly.
 
====Unix servers:====
 
*ssh into the unix servers
*issue the command '''lp -d''' "''name of the public printer''" "''name of file''", where the public printer name is from [http://http://oit.williams.edu/w/?u=docs/Public+Printer+List here], and the name of the file is the name of the file on your unix account.
*if you want to see the status of the printer, try '''lpstat -p''' "''name of the public printer''"
*laugh at your foolish \/\/1|\|D0\/\/$ friends.
