 +## Printing over Web 
 + 
 +You may print cards over web using the [cardprinterd](https://codeberg.org/dma/cardprinterd) server. Access it at http://dma-printserve.user.dma.computer:2273. 
 + 
 +No drivers are needed for this web UI. Simply make a PDF and feed it into the HTML form, and the print server will automatically print it using the Windows driver and [SumatraPDF](https://www.sumatrapdfreader.org/free-pdf-reader). 
 + 
 +### Determining Orientation 
 + 
 +Orientation set on the web UI is passed to SumatraPDF, which is passed straight to the print driver. **Most of the time, you should leave this unset**, otherwise this [may cause issues](https://forum.sumatrapdfreader.org/t/sumatra-pdf-direction-question/4489). 
 + 
 +> **Note**: This option was removed on a later version of cardprinterd. The driver already automatically determines the orientation, and setting this only messes that up.
