[5f83175]335 <para>
336 Normally, printers are set up via a web browser. The
337 <application>Cups</application> server will normally connect via
338 the url http://localhost:631. From there printers, print
339 jobs, and the server configuration can be set up and managed.
340 Remote system administration can also be set up. Configuration
[7b88d5a]341 can also be done from the command line via the
342 <command>lpadmin</command>, <command>lpoptions</command>,
[5f83175]343 and <command>lpstat</command> commands.
344 </para>
345
[2cf3f8a]346 <para>
347 Configuration of <application>Cups</application> is dependent on
348 the type of printer and can be complex. Generally, PostScript printers
349 are easier. For detailed instructions on configuration and use of
350 <application>Cups</application>, see <ulink
[7b88d5a]351 url="http://www.cups.org/documentation.php"/>.
[2cf3f8a]352 </para>
353
354 <para>
355 For non-PostScript printers to print with
[5618cdc]356 <application>Cups</application>, you need to install <xref
357 linkend="gs"/> to convert PostScript to raster images and a driver
[5f83175]358 (e.g. from <xref linkend="gutenprint"/>) to convert the resulting
[5618cdc]359 raster images to a form that the printer understands. <ulink
360 url="http://www.linuxprinting.org/foomatic.html">Foomatic</ulink>
[5f83175]361 drivers use <xref linkend="gs"/> to convert PostScript to a printable
362 form directly, but this is considered suboptimal by
[5618cdc]363 <application>Cups</application> developers.
