Print Server
Overview
| Print Server | Information |
|---|---|
| Description | A print server. |
| Package Name | cc-cups |
| Configuration Page | Software » Printing » Print Server |
ClarkConnect includes the Cups - the Common Unix Printing System - as well as a large set of printer drivers.
Configuration
Configuration of the printing system is done using the Cups web interface. You can access this interface via the ClarkConnect web-based interface.
| As a security precaution, the Cups web interface is only accessible on a trusted (LAN) network. You can not access the web interface from a remote Internet connection. |
Supported Printers
Not all printers are compatible with Linux. The best resource is the Linux Printing Database. You can find whether or not your printer is supported. If so, then follow the link from the web-based administration tool to add your printer.
Cups and Samba
When you configure a new printer with Cups, it will appear as a shared printer in Windows Network Neighborhood (if Samba is installed). However, you will need to restart the Samba service after adding a new printer.
