Implementation Notes

The print server is hosted on Aerohive AP121 running OpenWRT 19.07 and p910nd. The device was generously provided by maniax.

The device is connected using wireless connection to the initlab network and uses usb2parallel cable for communicating to the printer, so that the usb connection is available for scanning.

Login with ssh authorization is configured so that the majority of initlab power users have ssh access to the device (including maniax, lz1irq, ignisf, Slackware).
