Introduction to CUPS
The Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) is a print spooler and associated utilities. It is based on the "Internet Printing Protocol" and provides printing services to most PostScript and raster printers.

Creating the lp User
useradd -c "Print Service User" -d /dev/null -g lp -s /bin/false -u 10 lp
Non-Multilib
If you utilize Linux-PAM, you need to modify some files so CUPS can find needed headers. Make the appropriate modifications using the following command:
sed -i -e "s@pam/pam@security/pam@g" \
{config-scripts/cups-pam.m4,scheduler/auth.c,configure}
Compile the package:
./configure && make
Install the package
make install && rm -rfv /etc/rc.d/*/*cups
CUPS' man pages are compressed. If you want to uncompress them, use the following commands:
gunzip -v /usr/share/man/man1/{cancel,cups{-config,test{dsc,ppd}},lp{,options,passwd,q,rm,r,stat}}.1.gz
gunzip -v /usr/share/man/man5/{{classes,client,cups-snmp,cupsd,printers,subscriptions,mailto}.conf,mime.{convs,types}}.5.gz
gunzip -v /usr/share/man/man7/{backend,filter}.7
gunzip -v /usr/share/man/man8/{accept,cups{d,addsmb,enable,-{deviced,driverd,lpd,polld,}},lp{admin,info,move,c}}.8.gz
rm -v /usr/share/man/man8/{reject,cupsdisable}.8.gz
ln -sv accept.8 /usr/share/man/man8/reject.8 ln -sv cupsenable.8 /usr/share/man/man8/cupsdisable.8
Multilib
32Bit
If you utilize Linux-PAM, you need to modify some files so CUPS can find needed headers. Make the appropriate modifications using the following command:
sed -i -e "s@pam/pam@security/pam@g" \
{config-scripts/cups-pam.m4,scheduler/auth.c,configure}
Compile the package:
CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" CXX="g++ ${BUILD32}" USE_ARCH=32 ./configure \
--libdir=/usr/lib &&
make
Install the package
make install &&
rm -rfv /etc/rc.d/*/*cups &&
mv -v /usr/bin/cups-config{,-32}
N32
If you utilize Linux-PAM, you need to modify some files so CUPS can find needed headers. Make the appropriate modifications using the following command:
sed -i -e "s@pam/pam@security/pam@g" \
{config-scripts/cups-pam.m4,scheduler/auth.c,configure}
Compile the package:
CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}" CXX="g++ ${BUILDN32}" USE_ARCH=n32 ./configure \
--libdir=/usr/lib32 &&
make
Install the package
make install &&
rm -rfv /etc/rc.d/*/*cups &&
mv -v /usr/bin/cups-config{,-n32}
64Bit
If you utilize Linux-PAM, you need to modify some files so CUPS can find needed headers. Make the appropriate modifications using the following command:
sed -i -e "s@pam/pam@security/pam@g" \
{config-scripts/cups-pam.m4,scheduler/auth.c,configure}
Compile the package:
CC="gcc ${BUILD64}" CXX="g++ ${BUILD64}" USE_ARCH=64 ./configure \
--libdir=/usr/lib64 &&
make
Install the package
make install &&
rm -rfv /etc/rc.d/*/*cups &&
mv -v /usr/bin/cups-config{,-64} &&
ln -sfv multiarch_wrapper /usr/bin/cups-config
CUPS' man pages are compressed. If you want to uncompress them, use the following commands:
gunzip -v /usr/share/man/man1/{cancel,cups{-config,test{dsc,ppd}},lp{,options,passwd,q,rm,r,stat}}.1.gz
gunzip -v /usr/share/man/man5/{{classes,client,cups-snmp,cupsd,printers,subscriptions,mailto}.conf,mime.{convs,types}}.5.gz
gunzip -v /usr/share/man/man7/{backend,filter}.7
gunzip -v /usr/share/man/man8/{accept,cups{d,addsmb,enable,-{deviced,driverd,lpd,polld,}},lp{admin,info,move,c}}.8.gz
rm -v /usr/share/man/man8/{reject,cupsdisable}.8.gz
ln -sv accept.8 /usr/share/man/man8/reject.8 ln -sv cupsenable.8 /usr/share/man/man8/cupsdisable.8
Configuring
BootScript
Install the init script included in the bootscripts package.
make install-cups
