|
|
| 1009 | In order to setup a default printer, you have to edit |
|
|
| 1010 | <path>/etc/cups/client.conf</path> and set the directive |
|
|
| 1011 | <c>ServerName</c> to your printserver. In the case of this guide that |
|
|
| 1012 | would be the following example. |
|

|

|
|
| 1019 | <p> |
|
|
| 1020 | The following will print <path>foorbar.whatever.ps</path> directly to the print |
|
|
| 1021 | server. |

|
|
| 1029 | Some common observations when setting a default printer in this manner |
|
|
| 1030 | include the following: |
|
|
| 1031 | </p> |
1046 | <p> |
| 1032 | |
1047 | Just point your web browser to <c>http://printserver:631</c> on the client if |
| 1033 | <ul> |
1048 | you want to manage your printers and their jobs with a nice web interface. |
| 1034 | <li> |
1049 | Replace <c>printserver</c> with the name of the <e>machine</e> that acts as |
| 1035 | Setting the <c>ServerName</c> in <path>client.conf</path> seems to |
1050 | your print server, not the name you gave to the cups print server if you used |
| 1036 | work well for only one printer, there may be yet another way to |
1051 | different names. |
| 1037 | set a client's default remote printer. |
1052 | </p> |
| 1038 | </li> |
|
|
| 1039 | <li> |
|
|
| 1040 | Also, when accessing <c>http://localhost:631</c> on the client |
|
|
| 1041 | now, no printers seem to be "found" by the client-CUPS. This is to |
|
|
| 1042 | be expected when setting <c>ServerName</c> in |
|
|
| 1043 | <path>client.conf</path>. |
|
|
| 1044 | </li> |
|
|
| 1045 | </ul> |
