Lots of Printers Don't Work - CameronWoof - 06-21-2016
Went ahead and used my valuable free time to put together a list of printers on the station that don't work for various reasons. Some of these printers are connected to the mainframe, but incorrectly named, making it impossible to print to them. For example, the printer in Crew Quarters A is called [CrewQuartersA], but CrewQuartersA, CrewA, Crew, Crew-Quarters-A and etc. don't actually print to this printer, despite it being connected to the mainframe. The printers at the security checkpoints around the stations are ALL labeled Checkpoint, but printing to lp-checkpoint only prints to the security checkpoint in front of the chapel. Some simply aren't connected to the mainframe.
Arrivals Sec Checkpoint - Wrong Name
Escape Sec Checkpoint - Wrong Name
Crew Quarters A - Wrong Name
Crew Quarters B - Wrong Name
Quartermasters - Wrong Name
Arcade - No Connection
Hydroponics - No Connection
Kitchen - No Connection
PTL Sec Checkpoint - No Connection
QM Sec Checkpoint - No Connection
Robotics - No Connection
Sec Proper Checkpoint - No Connection
All of the other printers were checked and worked fine. To test these printers, I used 'echo "test" ^ /mnt/lp-printername' from a DWAINE terminal.
