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

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