We get to clean up the site for the client, make sure the data is unrecoverable, and refurbish some gear to save it from landfill and benefit someone who may

Warning- most of this article is now obsolete, with Apple wanting you to use AirPrint. I’ll add updated notes as the requirements emerge, but for now, have a look at how we got AirPrint services working for a Konica Minolta C754e and Fiery E100 here I’m beginning to love Mosyle, but it definitely has its quirks.
