I was wondering if anyone on this board has successfully set up a Follow-You printer solution, as a Linux user. It is what my university uses, and it does provide instructions for Ubuntu users, but I am on Arch.
I did spend some time on this using CUPS, and did manage to connect to the university printing service, but I found no method of providing my login details. I don't need a CUPS specific solution though. Anything that works is fine by me.
One thing I would prefer, was if the solution didn't require me to download a whole bunch of stuff. Also if it's something with a GUI, then it has to work on tiling WMs that do not reparent.
(I didn't post this in the tech support section, because it looked like it was only for gaming related tech support)
Oh, if you've already set it up according to the instructions, you might be able to authenticate individual print jobs using system-config-printer. When you print a document, it should show the job "waiting for authentication" or something like that in the printer's queue. Simply right click the job and select Authenticate. (If you can't find the queue, just right click the printer in system-config-printer's GUI.)
Hope this helps. Printing can be a bit fiddly sometimes, and I've never used "Follow-you"/pull printing myself. Lots of slightly different proprietary solutions around.
I tried using system-config-printer, but I'm getting nowhere. I'll just have to get other people to print for me
