Xerox AltaLink C8055
Serial N° 3712013116, service call center 02/713 14 53. Administrative interface on http://modxerox.ugent.be.
To add this printer on Windows 7, 8 or 10:
Download the Xerox Global Print Driver from here. Search for the printer with IP modxerox.ugent.be.
After installing, please adjust the standard print settings to monochrome and 2-sided.
Note: The Xerox C8055 printer should be accessible from everywhere in the UGent network, even through eduroam or the VPN. You don't have to use a registered ip to access the printer. Test if you can access the Xerox by connecting to eduroam/UGent VPN and surf to http://modxerox.ugent.be. If that's the case, you can install and use the printer on your computer. The windows install instructions stay the same. For Linux, download a driver on http://www.support.xerox.com/support/altalink-c8000-series/downloads/enu....

Don not use the (broken and ugly) official driver from http://www.support.xerox.com/support/workcentre-7800-series/downloads/en....
Instead, using the following pdd files: https://molmod.ugent.be/sites/default/files/cmm_printers_ppd_bestanden.zip
Printing under Linux: CUPS Server (outdated)
This will only work if you are part of the local network (=not using UGent VPN or eduroam).
There is a CUPS server running on molmod65.ugent.be. Simplify tell your PC to use this CUPS server and you will have access to all our printers (Does not work for windows, I think). If you Linux is new enough, it will find the print server automatically. Have a look if the printer is already visible on your system before continuing.
On your Linux machine, simply execute the following command:
sudo bash -c "echo 'ServerName molmod65.ugent.be' >
/etc/cups/client.conf ; killall -HUP cupsd"
If you do not have the administrative right on your machine, try this:
mkdir -p ~/.cups/ ; "echo 'ServerName molmod65.ugent.be' >
~/.cups/client.conf
