| | 1 | This information will help you if: |
| | 2 | * you have a CUPS server in your network that manages printers |
| | 3 | * the printer you want to print to understands Postscript |
| | 4 | * you have the CUPS port from Paul installed |
| | 5 | |
| | 6 | 1. Create a client.conf file that holds the information about the CUPS server |
| | 7 | * create a file called ''client.conf'' in ''\cups\etc\cups'' |
| | 8 | * add a single line to the file like this: |
| | 9 | {{{ |
| | 10 | ServerName printserver.mydomain.com |
| | 11 | }}} |
| | 12 | * obviously substitute ''printserver.mydomain.com'' with the name of your CUPS server |
| | 13 | 2. Query the names of the printers on the CUPS server |
| | 14 | * Issue the following command: ''\cups\bin\lpstat.exe -a'' |
| | 15 | * This will create a list of printers that can be used on the CUPS server |
| | 16 | 3. Print the CUPS test page |
| | 17 | * simply issue the following command: ''\cups\bin\lpr -P<printername> \cups\share\cups\data\testprint.ps'' |
| | 18 | * <printername> is the name of a printer as shown by the output of ''\cups\bin\lpstat.exe -a'' |
