====== CUPS ======

====== Cups webinterface ======
[[http://localhost:631/]]

By default it uses normal system users and their passwords (root for admin).
By default CUPS **@SYSTEM** group is mapped to system **lpadmin** group, so user should be added into **lpadmin** group.

To create internal CUPS users:
<code bash>
lppaswd -g lpadmin -a username
</code>
and file **/etc/cups/passwd.md5** will be created/updated

For more permissions look into **/etc/cups/cupsd.conf**

====== cups-pdf ======

<file | /etc/cups/cups-pdf.conf>
LogType 7
</file>

Error: "failed to set file mode"
Issue not related to apparmor (not enabled).

Solution:
  Error is generated by cups-pdf but is relative to ghostscript rights. Ghostscript seems to need full rights in its temp work dir.
  Setting "GSTmp /tmp" instead of "GSTmp /var/tmp" in /etc/cups/cups-pdf.conf solves the problem for me.


====== Brother DCP-7055W ======

<code bash>
lpadmin -p DCP7055W -v lpd://192.168.179.1/binary_p1 -E -P /usr/share/cups/model/brother-DCP-7055W-cups-en.ppd
</code>


====== Samsung ML-1640 ======
<code bash>
apt-get install printer-driver-splix
</code>
Connect USB printer, and XFCE Desktop will detect it and use driver automatically.
OR:
In printer settings, add new network printer. Choose Samsung and ML-1640 model.
Device URI:
 <code>socket://192.168.1.3:9100</code>

======  HP LaserJet Pro MFP M127fw ======

<code bash>sudo apt-get install hplip-gui</code>

New GUI application ''HPLIP Toolbox'' will be installed. 
  * Run app and add network printer using network discovery.
  * Let download plugin from Hp server

===== Network scanner =====

<code bash>
sudo apt-get install sane-utils
sudo apt-get install snmp-mibs-downloader
</code>

<file | /etc/default/saned>
RUN=yes
</file>

<file | /etc/sane.d/saned.conf>
192.168.0.0/22
</file>

<code bash>service saned restart</code>
<code>
Failed to restart saned.service: Unit saned.service is masked.
</code>
Which is correct when systemd is used. Saned service is activated by ''saned.socket'' on TCP:6566
<code bash>systemctl enable saned.socket</code>

Enable proper backend in /etc/sane.d/dll.conf

<code bash>
scanimage -L
scanimage > test.ppm
</code>

Problem is that remote saned clients has to known ''hpaio'' driver to use it. 
So it is not possible to use it on Android.
