**TL;DR:** Please help me figure out how to automatically authenticate my print-jobs being sent to a print server. OR: give me a rabbit-hole where I can figure-out how to hack into the printer.
Currently, our workplace got new printers (instead of new computers -- makes sense, I know). For the past years, I simply directly connected to the printer's IP and could print directly without connecting to the print server and authenticating. Now, the new printers have a keycard (MIFARE 1k) IC system, so our corporate overlords can track us. So, even after scanning the ports (using Nmap) of the printer I want to print from, any print-jobs I send to the printer on any port / protocol will not print.
So, I have decided to play ball, toe-the-line, and follow the rules. However, every time I go to print (for EVERY print-job / file), I must authenticate by typing my username and password (password must be typed TWICE!). This is very troublesome. Is there a way to automatically authenticate / save my printer credentials for every print-job I send to the printer?
**Additional Info:*\*
* Printer: RICOH IM C6000 and some print server somewhere in the building (running ZSPrinter; I think it's some kind of Chinese print-server software)
* User Computers & Print Server: all running Windows 10
* I know the local IPs of the printers and the print server.
Thanks for your help!
