321 Normally, printers are set up via a web browser. The
322 <application>Cups</application> server will normally connect via
323 the url http://localhost:631. From there printers, print
324 jobs, and the server configuration can be set up and managed.
325 Remote system administration can also be set up. Configuration
[7b88d5a]326 can also be done from the command line via the
327 <command>lpadmin</command>, <command>lpoptions</command>,
[5f83175]328 and <command>lpstat</command> commands.
329 </para>
330
[2cf3f8a]331 <para>
332 Configuration of <application>Cups</application> is dependent on
333 the type of printer and can be complex. Generally, PostScript printers
334 are easier. For detailed instructions on configuration and use of
335 <application>Cups</application>, see <ulink

338
339 <para>
340 For non-PostScript printers to print with
[5618cdc]341 <application>Cups</application>, you need to install <xref
342 linkend="gs"/> to convert PostScript to raster images and a driver
[5f83175]343 (e.g. from <xref linkend="gutenprint"/>) to convert the resulting
[5618cdc]344 raster images to a form that the printer understands. <ulink
[7c64789]345 url="https://wiki.linuxfoundation.org/openprinting/database/foomatic">Foomatic</ulink>
[5f83175]346 drivers use <xref linkend="gs"/> to convert PostScript to a printable
347 form directly, but this is considered suboptimal by
[5618cdc]348 <application>Cups</application> developers.
