# Cups: The Common Unix Printing System
|
|
|
|
Configure cups at /etc/cups/supsd.conf, or visit the local webpage at http://localhost:631 if you want to use the Apple interface, otherwise, it's the printing daemon.
|
|
|
|
# The Printing Daemon
|
|
|
|
The printing daemon automatically reads the cups configuration file. It prints with:
|
|
|
|
> lp mytext.txt
|
|
|
|
Find a list of printers with:
|
|
|
|
> lpq
|
|
|
|
You can specify a printer with `-d`:
|
|
|
|
> lp -d DCP7060D article.pdf
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, if you see a printer number, cancel job 33 with:
|
|
|
|
> lprm 33
|
|
|
|
or just cancel all jobs:
|
|
|
|
> lprm -
|
|
|
|
See printers on network:
|
|
|
|
> lpstat -a
|
|
|
|
Block or accept all jobs with:
|
|
|
|
> cupsreject DCP7060D
|
|
|
|
> cupsaccept DCP7060D
|
