== Configure CUPS Printing ==


1. Login to server, using root user and install CUPS.


''<nowiki># yum install cups*</nowiki>''




[[Image:GSTNCUPS1.png]]




2. Edit cupsd.conf file.


''<nowiki># vi /etc/cups/cupsd.conf</nowiki>''








[[Image:GSTNCUPS2.png]]








4. Restart cups service.
# systemctl restart cups.service




3. Make below entries and save file.




''MaxLogSize 1m''


''LogLevel debug''


''<nowiki># Allow remote access</nowiki>''


''Listen localhost:631''


CUPS Web interface (Adding printers).
''Listen 172.18.101.14:631''
1.  Now open the web browser and open link https://172.18.101.14:631.
    From here we can add and manage printers. to add a new printer click “Administration”.


2.  Click and “Add Printer” and type root username and password of the cups server:
''Listen 2404:a800:1000:d:7800::e:631''


''Listen /var/run/cups/cups.sock''


''Browsing On''


''BrowseLocalProtocols dnssd''


3. Select “AppSocket/HP JetDirect” (here i have Hp Laserjet Pro m202dw printers) and click Continue.
''DefaultAuthType Basic''


''WebInterface Yes''


4. In connection tab type the ipp://172.18.5.67:631/ipp (172.18.5.67 is printer IP) and click Continue.
''<Location />''


<div style="color:#00000a;">''<nowiki># Allow remote administration...</nowiki>''</div>


<div style="color:#00000a;">''Order allow,deny''</div>


<div style="color:#00000a;">''Allow localhost''</div>


5. Fill the required information and click on “Share This Printer “ and click on “Continue”.
<div style="color:#00000a;">''Allow 172.18.5.0/24''</div>


6. Select the “Generic” print driver and click on “continue”.
''</Location>''


''<Location /admin>''


<div style="color:#00000a;">''<nowiki># Allow remote administration...</nowiki>''</div>


<div style="color:#00000a;">''Order allow,deny''</div>


<div style="color:#00000a;">''Allow localhost''</div>


7. Select the model “Generic PCL Laser Printer(en)” and click on “Add Printer”.
<div style="color:#00000a;">''Allow 172.18.5.0/24''</div>
Now printer configuration has been done.


Testing printer (Print test page).
''</Location>''
1. Click on “Printers” tab. Here we can see the installed printers click on printer which we want to test.


''<Location /admin/conf>''


2. Click on “Maintenance” and select “Print Test Page”.
<div style="color:#00000a;">''AuthType Default''</div>


<div style="color:#00000a;">''Require user @SYSTEM''</div>

<div style="color:#00000a;">''<nowiki># Allow remote access to the configuration files...</nowiki>''</div>


<div style="color:#00000a;">''Order allow,deny''</div>


<div style="color:#00000a;">''Allow localhost''</div>


<div style="color:#00000a;">''Allow 172.18.5.0/24''</div>








CUPS Integration with Samba.
To integrate cups with samba we can follow below steps.
1. Open “/usr/local/samba/etc/smb.conf” file.
# vi /usr/local/samba/etc/smb.conf




Line 151: Line 140:




2. Make below entry in smb.conf file in Global section.
      rpc_server:spoolss = external
        rpc_daemon:spoolssd = fork
        spoolss: architecture = Windows x64




Line 165: Line 150:




3. Create the Samba spool directory and set permission.
# mkdir -p /var/spool/samba4/ ; chmod 1777 /var/spool/samba4/






4.  Open again /usr/local/samba/etc/smb.conf file and make below entries.


[ProLaserJet]
      comment = ProLaserJet
      path = /var/spool/samba4/
      browseable = yes
      printable = yes
      printer name = ProLaserJet


[ProLaserJet2]
      comment = ProLaserJet2
      path = /var/spool/samba4/
      browseable = yes
      printable = yes
      printer name = ProLaserJet2








[[Image:GSTNCUPS3.png]]


4. Restart cups service.


''<nowiki># systemctl restart cups.service </nowiki>''




<div style="color:#00000a;">[[Image:GSTNCUPS4.png]]</div>


5. Restart samba service.
# systemctl stop samba4.service


<div style="color:#00000a;"></div>


<div style="color:#00000a;"></div>
