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

353 <para>
354 Normally, printers are set up via a web browser. The
355 <application>Cups</application> server will normally connect via
356 the url http://localhost:631. From there printers, print
357 jobs, and the server configuration can be set up and managed.
358 Remote system administration can also be set up. Configuration
359 can also be done from the command line via the
360 <command>lpadmin</command>, <command>lpoptions</command>,
361 and <command>lpstat</command> commands.
362 </para>
363
364 <para>
365 Configuration of <application>Cups</application> is dependent on
366 the type of printer and can be complex. Generally, PostScript printers
367 are easier. For detailed instructions on configuration and use of
368 <application>Cups</application>, see <ulink
369 url="http://www.cups.org/documentation.php"/>.
370 </para>
371
372 <para>
373 For non-PostScript printers to print with
374 <application>Cups</application>, you need to install <xref
375 linkend="gs"/> to convert PostScript to raster images and a driver
376 (e.g. from <xref linkend="gutenprint"/>) to convert the resulting
377 raster images to a form that the printer understands. <ulink
378 url="http://www.linuxprinting.org/foomatic.html">Foomatic</ulink>
379 drivers use <xref linkend="gs"/> to convert PostScript to a printable
380 form directly, but this is considered suboptimal by
381 <application>Cups</application> developers.
