# CUPS
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[CUPS](https://www.cups.org/) is a open source printing software developed for
|
|
|
|
|
unix and unix-like systems.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The software can be setup via [Docker](/wiki/docker.md) with the
|
|
|
|
|
[linuxserver image](./docker-images/linuxserver_-_airsonic.md).
|
|
|
|
|
Additionally to this a client is needed on the system that need access to the
|
|
|
|
|
server software.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Client
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To use CUPS an additional client software is needed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For Linux computers follow these instructions:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Install the CUPS-client package (in Arch Linux it is included in `cups`)
|
|
|
|
|
- Edit `/etc/cups/client.conf` and insert `ServerName <ip to print-server>:631`
|
|
|
|
|
- Restart the CUPS service: `systemctl restart cups`
|
|
|
|
|
- Test connectivity: `lpstat -r`
|
|
|
|
|
- Check the detected printers with: `lpstat -v`
|
