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

344 Normally, printers are set up via a web browser. The
345 <application>Cups</application> server will normally connect via
346 the url http://localhost:631. From there printers, print
347 jobs, and the server configuration can be set up and managed.
348 Remote system administration can also be set up. Configuration
349 can also be done from the command line via the
350 <command>lpadmin</command>, <command>lpoptions</command>,
351 and <command>lpstat</command> commands.
352 </para>
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"/>.
360 </para>
361
362 <para>
363 For non-PostScript printers to print with
364 <application>Cups</application>, you need to install <xref
365 linkend="gs"/> to convert PostScript to raster images and a driver
366 (e.g. from <xref linkend="gutenprint"/>) to convert the resulting
367 raster images to a form that the printer understands. <ulink
368 url="http://www.linuxprinting.org/foomatic.html">Foomatic</ulink>
369 drivers use <xref linkend="gs"/> to convert PostScript to a printable
370 form directly, but this is considered suboptimal by
