| find that, for many people, the concept is unknown. Even worse, when people
| have heard of it, they have alarming -- and rather discouraging --
| misconceptions of what it involves.

| While I was waiting for the first round of software to install on Windows, I
| turned to my laptop running Ubuntu to see if I could get it setup to print as
| well. I launched the printing configuration tool. Clicked on "New Printer".
| Typed in the IP address I had assigned to the printer and selected the model
| number.
