print-color

Print (Color)

Send a color print job to the HP DeskJet 5200.

Read Printer Config

Read context/printer-config.md (in this plugin's directory) for the CUPS printer name and IP.

Locate Plugin Directory

This skill may be invoked from any repository. To find the templates and config, locate the plugin's installed path:

PLUGIN_DIR=$(find ~/.claude/plugins/cache/danielrosehill/hp5200-printer -maxdepth 1 -type d | sort -V | tail -1)

Input Handling

1. User provides a file path

Print it directly — no Typst compilation needed for PDF, image, or text files.

2. User provides content or instructions

Create a Typst document from scratch under /tmp/hp5200-print/.

3. User requests a template

Use one of the templates from $PLUGIN_DIR/templates/. Available templates:

Template	File	Use case
Session Summary	session-summary.typ	End-of-session recap
Blocker	blocker.typ	Document a blocker for human attention
Note To Self	note-to-self.typ	Quick printed reminder or thought

Template variable injection

All templates use «VARIABLE» placeholders. Before compiling, replace them:

Variable	Value
«AGENT_NAME»	The AI agent's name (e.g. "Claude Code")
«MODEL_NAME»	The model (e.g. "Opus 4.6") — use whatever model you actually are
«DATE»	Current date/time formatted as "13 April 2026, 15:30"
«TITLE»	Document title — ask the user or infer from context
«BODY»	The main content — from user input or generated

To apply:

cp "$PLUGIN_DIR/templates/session-summary.typ" /tmp/hp5200-print/doc.typ
sed -i 's|«AGENT_NAME»|Claude Code|g' /tmp/hp5200-print/doc.typ
sed -i 's|«MODEL_NAME»|Opus 4.6|g' /tmp/hp5200-print/doc.typ
# ... etc for each variable

Or write the file directly with variables already substituted (preferred — avoids sed escaping issues).

Compile and Print

mkdir -p /tmp/hp5200-print
typst compile /tmp/hp5200-print/doc.typ /tmp/hp5200-print/doc.pdf
pdftotext /tmp/hp5200-print/doc.pdf - | head -40

Show the user the extracted text and ask for approval, then:

lp -d HP-DeskJet-5200 -o print-color-mode=color /tmp/hp5200-print/doc.pdf

Common options:

• Multiple copies: -n 3
• Duplex: -o sides=two-sided-long-edge
• Landscape: -o landscape

Hard Rules

• Always ask for approval before sending to printer (show content preview first). Exception: test-print skill.
• Always use A4 unless the user specifies otherwise.
• Always compile and verify before printing — never send a .typ file directly.
• If the user provides a pre-existing file (PDF, image, text), skip Typst and print directly.
