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.
Project Homepage: http://www.cups.org/
Note
If you get "Unsuported format, application/postscript" errors, try installing Cups/Ghostscript/foomatic (if needed), then start cups.

Configuration Information
Note
CUPS does not use DESTDIR, CUPS uses BUILDROOT instead. Use BUILDROOT as you would normally use DESTDIR.
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
If wanting to print to a Windows printer, pass this line to add smb support
ln -s `which smbspool` /usr/lib/cups/backend/smb
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}
If wanting to print to a Windows printer, pass this line to add smb support (Untested)
ln -s `which smbspool` /usr/lib/cups/backend/smb
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:
sed -i '/CUPS_SERVERBIN/s:/lib:&32:' configure &&
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}
If wanting to print to a Windows printer, pass this line to add smb support (Untested)
ln -s `which smbspool` /usr/lib32/cups/backend/smb
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:
sed -i '/CUPS_SERVERBIN/s:/lib:&64:' configure &&
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
If wanting to print to a Windows printer, pass this line to add smb support (Untested)
ln -s `which smbspool` /usr/lib64/cups/backend/smb
Configuring
BootScript
Install the init script included in the bootscripts package.
make install-cups
