|

| 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"/>. The Software
|
|---|
| 370 | Administrators Manual and Software Users Manual are particularly useful.

|

| 374 | For non-PostScript printers to print with
|
|---|
| 375 | <application>Cups</application>, you need to install <xref linkend="gs"/>
|
|---|
| 376 | to convert PostScript to raster images and a driver (e.g., from
|
|---|
| 377 | <xref linkend="gutenprint"/>) to convert the resulting raster images to a
|
|---|
| 378 | form that the printer understands.
|
|---|
| 379 | <ulink url="http://www.linuxprinting.org/foomatic.html">Foomatic</ulink>
|
|---|
| 380 | drivers use Ghostscript to convert PostScript to a printable form directly,
|

| 381 | but this is considered to be a hack by <application>Cups</application>
|

| 382 | developers.
