A script to allow Harvard Linux users to connect to the FAS printer system.
Harvard University IT does not currently offer Linux users any way to connect to the printing system from their laptops. I wrote this bash script to remedy that problem.
+
+
+## Instructions
+
+**Note:** *Do not run this script on an insecure Wi-Fi network (like Harvard Guest or Harvard University).*
+
+Download `harvard-linux-printer.sh` to some directory.
+
+Then, run the following:
+
+~~~~
+sudo chmod 755 harvard-linux-printer.sh
+sudo ./harvard-linux-printer.sh
+~~~~
+
+Note that you need to know your PaperCut username and password, which can be different from your my.harvard login information.
+
+The printer connections are preserved across restarts (unlike with the Windows setup), so you can delete the script after it has been run.
+
+
+## Known Issues
+
+If your PaperCut username or password contains a colon or percent sign, then the script might fail.
+
+Please report any bugs [here](https://github.com/djsavvy/harvard-linux-printer/issues). \ No newline at end of file
