====== CUPS Printer Server Configuration ======

CUPS is the most popular printing system on Linux these days.

On the CUPS server, be sure the network access is set sufficiently open:

<file>
vim /etc/cups/cupsd.conf

    <Location />
    Order Allow,Deny
    Deny From All
    Allow From 127.0.0.1
    Allow From 127.0.0.2
    Allow From @LOCAL
    </Location>
</file>

  * You may want to allow administrative access to the local network as well, but this is not necessary.
  * Host names must resolve.  The CUPS server name should be resolvable by all clients.
  * You can default the CUPS configuration by deleting the /etc/cups/cupsd.conf file and restarting CUPS.
  * The ''lpadmin'' command is used to configure CUPS from the command line.
  * Normally, we use a web browser to configure and manage CUPS.
  * The CUPS web interface is normally on port 631.
