|
|---|
| 5 | dependent on the type of printer and can be complex. Generally, PostScript
|

| 6 | printers are easier. For detailed instructions on configuration and use of
|
|---|
| 7 | <application><acronym>CUPS</acronym></application>, see
|
|---|
| 8 | <ulink url="http://www.cups.org/documentation.php"/>. The Software

| 11 | <para>For non-PostScript printers to print with CUPS you need to install
|
|---|
| 12 | <xref linkend="espgs"/> to convert PostScript to raster images
|
|---|
| 13 | and a driver (e.g., from <xref linkend="gimp-print"/>) to convert
|
|---|
| 14 | the resulting raster images to a form that the printer understands.

| 16 | drivers use Ghostscript to convert PostScript to a printable form directly, but this

|

| 22 | works, but you may want to change it to a more conventional <acronym>LFS

| 23 | </acronym> startup file by installing the script included in the
