33 The Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) is a print spooler and
34 associated utilities. It is based on the "Internet Printing

376 Normally, printers are set up via a web browser. The
377 <application>Cups</application> server will normally connect via
378 the url http://localhost:631. From there printers, print
379 jobs, and the server configuration can be set up and managed.
380 Remote system administration can also be set up. Configuration
381 can also be done from the command line via the
382 <command>lpadmin</command>, <command>lpoptions</command>,
383 and <command>lpstat</command> commands.
384 </para>
385
386 <para>
387 Configuration of <application>Cups</application> is dependent on
388 the type of printer and can be complex. Generally, PostScript printers
389 are easier. For detailed instructions on configuration and use of
390 <application>Cups</application>, see <ulink
391 url="http://www.cups.org/documentation.php"/>.
392 </para>
393
394 <para>
395 For non-PostScript printers to print with
396 <application>Cups</application>, you need to install <xref
397 linkend="gs"/> to convert PostScript to raster images and a driver
398 (e.g. from <xref linkend="gutenprint"/>) to convert the resulting
399 raster images to a form that the printer understands. <ulink
400 url="http://www.linuxprinting.org/foomatic.html">Foomatic</ulink>
401 drivers use <xref linkend="gs"/> to convert PostScript to a printable
402 form directly, but this is considered suboptimal by
