<title>Configuring Cups</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>Configuration of <application>Cups</application> is dependent on
|
|
the type of printer and can be complex. Generally, PostScript printers
|
|
are easier. For detailed instructions on configuration and use of
|
|
<application>Cups</application>, see <ulink
|
|
url="http://www.cups.org/documentation.php"/>. The Software Administrators
|
|
Manual and Software Users Manual are particularly useful.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>For non-PostScript printers to print with
|
|
<application>Cups</application>, you need to install <xref linkend="gs"/>
|
|
to convert PostScript to raster images and a driver (e.g., from
|
|
<xref linkend="gutenprint"/>) to convert the resulting raster images to a
|
|
form that the printer understands.
|
|
<ulink url="http://www.linuxprinting.org/foomatic.html">Foomatic</ulink>
|
|
drivers use Ghostscript to convert PostScript to a printable form directly,
|
|
but this is considered to be a hack by
|
|
<application>Cups</application> developers.</para>
