I recently had an issue with my brand new Canon TS8120 where I could print but I could not scan. My Canon printer currently has been wirelessly connected using Secure AirPrint. The Canon documentation said that the device should be able to wirelessly print and scan, so I was very confused. After searching two separate nights for a solution online I could not find anything.
- Restarting my router did not work.

Then I found this blog post by James McDonald that solved my issue. For some reason Mac based computers…
We all love Laravel Forge. It makes things so, so easy. That being said, when using AWS as your host sometimes AWS permissions can be a bit funny.

Laravel Homestead is now out, and I love using it for my Vagrant environment. That being said, sometimes configuration of third-party tools like Sequel Pro can be a bit funny.

- Choose “Standard” toggle at the top
- Put in the following credentials

- Host: 127.0.0.1
- Username: homestead
- Password: secret
- Database: (optional, whatever you want if you want to directly connect)
- Port: 33060
Happy Homesteading!
