* Currently does not print duplex (two-sided) locally from that PC. This should be fixable -- the printer itself supports it, it's just a matter of drivers which do exist for linux.

If printing from a thumb drive, insert the thumb drive, select the file, and print. This works, but has fewer options for print settings.

Network printing can give more options. For Linux machines, get on the member network or hardwired network, and use the print settings wizard.
