CUPS
Cups webinterface
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:
lppaswd -g lpadmin -a username
and file /etc/cups/passwd.md5 will be created/updated
For more permissions look into /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
cups-pdf
- /etc/cups/cups-pdf.conf
LogType 7
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.

service saned restart
Failed to restart saned.service: Unit saned.service is masked.
Which is correct when systemd is used. Saned service is activated by saned.socket
on TCP:6566
systemctl enable saned.socket
Enable proper backend in /etc/sane.d/dll.conf
scanimage -L scanimage > test.ppm
Problem is that remote saned clients has to known hpaio
driver to use it.
So it is not possible to use it on Android.
