Replacing LPRng Print Service With CUPs

If you are a user of the LPRng print service hosted on lpr1.umiacs.umd.edu please note, We have replaced our print service with a new service based on the CUPs software to provide better printer support and more security. Instructions for using and configuring the new print service can be found at:

https://wiki.umiacs.umd.edu/umiacs/index.php/CUPS

Our old print service will be retired on Thursday, August 18. Please update your print setting before then to avoid a disruption. If you require assistance updating your printer configuration, you can contact staff, by sending an email to staff@umiacs.umd.edu. Or you can visit our Help Desk, 3142 AVW, between the hours of 9am and 5pm.

Thanks for your patience
