Configuring a CUPS Print Server (Task Map)

Task
Description
For Information
Configure a CUPS print server.
Each system that uses CUPS can be both a print server and a print client. The system acts as the server for any printers that are physically connected to it and for any print queues that are created on that system.
Configure a CUPS server to administer remote print queues.
You can use CUPS Print Manager to connect to a remote system, where you can administer print queues. Note that the remote system must be configured to allow remote administration.
