33 The Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) is a print spooler and
34 associated utilities. It is based on the "Internet Printing
35 Protocol" and provides printing services to most PostScript
36 and raster printers.

353
354 <para>
355 Configuration of <application>Cups</application> is dependent on
356 the type of printer and can be complex. Generally, PostScript printers
357 are easier. For detailed instructions on configuration and use of
358 <application>Cups</application>, see <ulink
359 url="http://www.cups.org/documentation.php"/>. The Software
360 Administrators Manual and Software Users Manual are particularly useful.
361 </para>
362
363 <para>
364 For non-PostScript printers to print with
365 <application>Cups</application>, you need to install <xref
366 linkend="gs"/> to convert PostScript to raster images and a driver
367 (e.g., from <xref linkend="gutenprint"/>) to convert the resulting
368 raster images to a form that the printer understands. <ulink
369 url="http://www.linuxprinting.org/foomatic.html">Foomatic</ulink>
370 drivers use Ghostscript to convert PostScript to a printable form
371 directly, but this is considered to be a hack by
372 <application>Cups</application> developers.
