Using the Web Interface

next up previous contents index

After installing cupsys visit http://localhost:631/ to add a printer to your host Bartok (98.3). The example here adds a network printer (that we identify as hplj in /etc/hosts where it is associated with address 192.168.0.6) using a HP JetDirect device to connect a HP LaserJet 1200.



  Name: lp0
  Location: Richard's Desk
  Description: HP LaserJet 1200
  Device: AppSocket/HP JetDirect
  URI: socket://hplj:9100/
  Make: HP
  Model: HP LaserJet 1200 Series PS (en)


If you are using the web interface and now go to the printer and get a permission denied error, chances are it is because your browser is going to bartok.act.togaware.com rather than localhost. You can edit /etc/cups/cupsd.conf to give permission for all local hosts (since in my setup I have printers configured on the server then use rdist to distribute the configuration to all clients):



  <Location />
    ...
    Allow From 192.168.0.*
  </Location>
  ...
  <Location /admin>
    ...
    Allow From 192.168.0.*
  </Location>


You could use .act.togaware.com instead to allow access from any host in your domain. Then restart the cupsys daemon:



  $ wajig restart cupsys


Print a test page to make sure it works. Also, go into Configure Printer to set Page Size to A4, and any other default settings, like duplex printing.
