Print files from any device using Dropbox

If you have a printer attached to a Linux machine, you can easily send print jobs to that printer from another remote computer using Dropbox (see similar solutions for Windows and Mac).

<code bash> #!/bin/bash export PrintQueue=“/root/Dropbox/PrintQueue”; IFS=$'\n' for PrintFile in $(/bin/ls -1 ${PrintQueue}) do

lpr -r ${PrintQueue}/${PrintFile};

done – dropprint.sh —
