UPSTREAM: Add missing registered media sizes to PWG mapping table A number of sizes that were added to ipp-registrations.xml after the initial PWG 5101.1-2002 document are not currently mapped. When these sizes are mapped through a generated IPP Everywhere PPD and back to IPP media size names, they get changed into auto-generated self-describing names instead of the official registered names. This change adds all the non-duplicate missing names. Most of them don't have official MediaOptions keywords, so the PPD names are mapped to dimensions. With the updated mapping table, all of these sizes can roundtrip correctly. This also fixes a missing unit and an incorrect name in two existing mappings for oe photo sizes. These entries were not added due to being duplicates of existing sizes: * iso_id-3_88x125mm duplicates iso_b7_88x125mm. * oe_photo-s10r_10x15in duplicates na_10x15_10x15in. * prc_3_125x176mm duplicates iso_b6_125x176mm. * om_postfix_114x229mm duplicates iso_c6c5_114x229mm. * prc_10_324x458mm duplicates iso_c3_324x458mm. * prc_5_110x220mm duplicates iso_dl_110x220mm.

OpenPrinting CUPS is a standards-based, open source printing system for Linux® and other Unix®-like operating systems. CUPS supports printing to:
CUPS provides the System V (“lp”) and Berkeley (“lpr”) command-line interfaces, a configurable web interface, a C API, and common print filters, drivers, and backends for printing. The cups-filters project provides additional filters and drivers.
CUPS is licensed under the Apache License Version 2.0 with an exception to allow linking against GNU GPL2-only software. See the files LICENSE
and NOTICE
for more information.
Initial documentation to get you started is provided in the root directory of the CUPS sources:
CHANGES.md
: A list of changes in the current major release of CUPS.CONTRIBUTING.md
: Guidelines for contributing to the CUPS project.CREDITS.md
: A list of past contributors to the CUPS project.DEVELOPING.md
: Guidelines for developing code for the CUPS project.INSTALL.md
: Instructions for building and installing CUPS.LICENSE
: The CUPS license agreement (Apache 2.0).NOTICE
: Copyright notices and exceptions to the CUPS license agreement.README.md
: This file.Once you have installed the software you can access the documentation (and a bunch of other stuff) online at http://localhost:631/ and using the man
command, for example man cups
.
If you're having trouble getting that far, the documentation is located under the doc/help
and man
directories.
Please read the documentation before asking questions.
In addition to the OpenPrinting CUPS home page at https://openprinting.github.io/cups, we provide a mailing list for CUPS users and developers to ask questions and discuss issues at https://linuxfoundation.groups.io/g/printing.
CUPS includes a web-based administration tool that allows you to manage printers, classes, and jobs on your server. Open http://localhost:631/admin/ in your browser to access the printer administration tools. You will be asked for the administration password (root or any other user in the “sys”, “system”, “root”, “admin”, or “lpadmin” group on your system) when performing any administrative function.
The lpadmin
command is used to manage printers from the command-line. For example, the following command creates a print queue called “myprinter” for an IPP Everywhere printer at address “11.22.33.44”:
lpadmin -p myprinter -E -v "ipp://11.22.33.44/ipp/print" -m everywhere
The -p
option specifies the printer name. The -E
option enables the printer and accepts new print jobs immediately. The -v
option specifies the device URI for the printer, which tells CUPS how to communicate with the printer. And the -m
option specifies the model (driver) to use, in this case the IPP Everywhere (“everywhere”) driver that is used for AirPrint and IPP Everywhere printers as well as shared printers and printers supported through Printer Applications.
Legacy printers are supported using PPD (PostScript Printer Description) files that describe printer capabilities and driver programs needed for each printer. CUPS includes several sample PPD files for common legacy printers:
Driver | PPD Name |
---|---|
Dymo Label Printers | drv:///sample.drv/dymo.ppd |
Intellitech Intellibar | drv:///sample.drv/intelbar.ppd |
EPSON 9-pin Series | drv:///sample.drv/epson9.ppd |
EPSON 24-pin Series | drv:///sample.drv/epson24.ppd |
Generic PCL Laser Printer | drv:///sample.drv/generpcl.ppd |
Generic PostScript Printer | drv:///sample.drv/generic.ppd |
HP DeskJet Series | drv:///sample.drv/deskjet.ppd |
HP LaserJet Series | drv:///sample.drv/laserjet.ppd |
OKIDATA 9-Pin Series | drv:///sample.drv/okidata9.ppd |
OKIDATA 24-Pin Series | drv:///sample.drv/okidat24.ppd |
Zebra CPCL Label Printer | drv:///sample.drv/zebracpl.ppd |
Zebra EPL1 Label Printer | drv:///sample.drv/zebraep1.ppd |
Zebra EPL2 Label Printer | drv:///sample.drv/zebraep2.ppd |
Zebra ZPL Label Printer | drv:///sample.drv/zebra.ppd |
The sample drivers provide basic printing capabilities, but generally do not exercise the full potential of the printers or CUPS. Other drivers provide greater printing capabilities.
You can run the lpinfo -m
command to list all of the available drivers:
lpinfo -m
Similarly, the lpinfo -v
command lists the available printers and their device URIs:
lpinfo -v
Once you know the device URI and driver name, add the printer using the lpadmin
command:
lpadmin -p PRINTER-NAME -E -v "DEVICE-URI" -m DRIVER-NAME
CUPS provides both the System V lp
and Berkeley lpr
commands for printing:
lp FILENAME lpr FILENAME
Both the lp
and lpr
commands support printing options:
lp -o media=A4 -o resolution=600dpi FILENAME lpr -o media=A4 -o resolution=600dpi FILENAME
CUPS recognizes many types of images files as well as PDF, PostScript, and text files, so you can print those files directly rather than through an application.
If you have an application that generates output specifically for your printer then you need to use the -oraw
or -l
options:
lp -o raw FILENAME lpr -l FILENAME
This will prevent the filters from misinterpreting your print file.
