Ubuntu 14.04 LTS LiveCD Checklist

1. Are you offline?
You don't need an Internet connection to make these paper wallets.
For added security, consider temporarily powering off your modem or router.

2. Have you setup your printer yet?
Every time you boot from this CD, you will have to setup your printer all over again.
First click on System Settings, then click Printers, then add your printer. Print a test page.

Notes on Ubuntu Printer Compatibility

• Older printers, and Hewlett Packard (HP) brand printers in particular, are more likely to be supported.
• If your printer doesn't work, research whether it supports PCL, Postscript, or PDF as a "Printer language". Ubuntu's generic drivers should support these printers as well.
• If you ultimately fail to get your printer to work, consider printing to PDF files from Firefox. You can save the PDFs to a thumbdrive and print them using a different computer. If you choose to follow this route, it's recommended that you select the "BIP38 Encrypt" option to better secure your wallets.
