## Installation

### OS X

To install the printbin printer on OS X, simply run the following
command from your terminal:

```
curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/watson/printbin/master/scripts/osx.sh | sh
```

#### Alternative installation

You can also install the printbin printer as a Bonjour printer. This
requires that the printer is advertised on your local network. To do
this, simply follow these steps:

Install the printbin module globally:

```
npm install printbin -g
```

Start the printbin bonjour daemon:

```
printbin
```

Find and install the printbin printer:

### Windows

Windows doesn't support Bonjour/Zeroconf by default, so for now just
follow this guide to add the printer manually:

The printer URL is:

```
ipp://ipp.printb.in:80
```
