3.1. Introduction

CUPS is an acronym which stands for Common Unix Printing System. It is assumed that the reader has properly installed the CUPS software and the Gimp-Print software. This section will discuss adding a printer to CUPS that uses a Gimp-Print printer driver, as well as how to modify the various settings supplied by Gimp-Print. This will be a rather quick explanation, as the CUPS software is quite well documented, and it is not my intention to attempt to duplicate the CUPS documentation here.
