  2. 5. Setting up CUPS

    sudo nano /etc/cups/cupsd.conf

    And make the following Change:

  3. 6. Setting up Avahi

    So to Install Avahi Daemon
    First, run:

    sudo apt install avahi-daemon

    Next to Start it play:

    sudo service avahi start

    Again to enable it at Boot:

    sudo systemctl enable avahi-daemon

    Eventually to open in Firewall the Port it listen:

    sudo ufw allow 5353/udp

    And the Avahi Server implementation supports Printer IPP Driverless connection out-of-box.

  4. 7. Adding Network Printer

    Now to Add a Network Printer
    On macOS the Printer should be automatically installed just because it Network Printing System is founded on CUPS.
    Instead, for the GNU/Linux Local Systems you basically dispose of 2 easy CUPS Server GUI Admin Interfaces:

    • CUPS Admin Web UI

    • System Config Printer Applet

    Using CUPS Admin Web UI

    To access the CUPS Web UI go to: https://localhost:631/admin.

    And then choose to ‘Add Printer’ or ‘Find Printers’:

    The Printer using the Bonjour service should be automatically discovered:

    Using System Config Printer Applet

    To Launch the System Config Printer Applet see the Add Printer Guides.
    Once you choose the “Network Printer” entry the Device should be automatically found with the IPP Protocol:
