✨ SYSTEM-CONFIG-PRIN(1) ✨

okay bestie, so this is a page from the Man pages collection, and honestly? it's giving printer glow-up 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

system-config-printer — configure a CUPS server 🖨️✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

system-config-printer [[--show-jobs printer] | [--debug] | [--help]]

look at that nesting. the way that it's a little choose-your-own-adventure bracket situation 😭 iconic fr.

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so system-config-printer configures a CUPS server. that's the whole vibe. 💫

it does this by using the CUPS API — which is bound to Python with pycups, no cap. 🐍

and the way it talks to the server? IPP. periodt. 📡

and here's the slay part: because it's all IPP, it is equally able to configure a remote CUPS server as a local one. remote bestie or local bestie, same energy. 🌍🫶🏠

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

• --help — Display a short usage message. that's it, that's the whole thing, a lil snack of info 🍓
• --show-jobs printer — Show the named print queue. you name the printer, it shows you the queue 👀🧾
• --debug — Enable debugging output. for when you wanna see everything happening under the hood 🔍💜
