Hey guys, greeetings from Buenos Aires. I'd been evaluating a Meraki
solution after spending some time @ Blankspaces. The only thing that was
holding me back were cost concerns and an undefined networked solution
as Meraki was going to solve the wifi part of the puzzle (access
control, open-mesh, QoS).
We recently hosted an event for a group called Hacks/Hackers and they
installed a tremendously simple set of small AP's
(http://www.open-mesh.com) that created an instant mesh-network which
were ccontrolled by the open-source CloudTrax
http://www.open-mesh.com/index.php/cloud-controller). Worked like a
charm for the 100+ attendees.
I'm now thinking of going this route as the functionality seems to be comparable to Meraki but at 10% the cost.
Anyone have any experience with this Open-Mesh AP's + Cloudtrax (cloud controller) combo solution?
I'm looking to update the 6 consumer AP's I have distributed around my
5,500sq ft. 2 floor space with aprox 70 members. I'm also looking to
setup VLANS for each member's team (we have about 60%+ of our members in
private offices. Not sure yet how we might integrate the wifi mesh network with the wired VLAN's. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Take a look here: https://github.com/armooo/cloudprint
If your printer is on the network or connected to your pfSense machine you can install CUPS on the latter (there's a good guide on the pfSense forum) and then this script acts as a Google Cloud Print daemon. This depends on your willingness to SSH into pfSense and there being BSD support for your printer.
I haven't tried it since we don't have any ChromeOS users yet but it appears to be well-maintained. Hope it helps!
