  • Enable AirPrint support for a non-AirPrint printer using CUPS

    My lady bought a Brother HL-1210W monochrome laser printer yesterday. It’s simple and just works. We have several Apple devices but it doesn’t support AirPrint. Because this model of printer is released eailer (2014) than AirPrint (2017). *sigh*

    Although I can install an app on each device to handle printing, I would prefer not to.

    Anyway, I also have Synology NAS. So I ask AI about how to use it as an AirPrinter relay. There is a repository for this: znetworkx/synology-airprint. 

    “Of course, things aren’t as simple as an idiot imagines…”

    I need to download the printer driver packages, install them, and configure CUPS by following instructions on download page.

    Finally. Done.

    Just for keeping a record here. Bought from PChome24h on 05-07-2021

  • D-Link DIR-882

    The old WiFi router WZR-HP-G300NH2 is bought in May, 2012. Recently our Dyson Pure Cool machines lost connections a lot and it’s annoying. Although after tuned some settings in g300nh2 (TX Power and WiFi channels), it gets stable now. I ordered another WiFi router D-Link DIR-882.

    The setting process of dir-882 is smooth, BUT it lost web GUI every time after I changed the subnet. So I have to keep using the default 192.168.0.0/24, it’s not a big deal.

    Because the plan of HiNet Light broadband I use is just 100/40M and it’s the maximum bandwidth I can use, there is no need to use the latest WiFi 6 products.

    Next I can try OpenWrt firmware on g300nh2 and maybe turn it to a small services machine.
