CUPS Administrative Guide

Arrived fast and in perfect condition. Excellent book covering different aspects of a Cups server. Written in an easy to understand format with lots of examples.

CUPS is a powerful and configurable printing system, and this book's author does a very good job of discussing it and its options clearly. Anyone working in a business or computer lab setting would find the book useful and probably more enjoyable and easier to parse than using man pages and Google searches. I think this is especially true in a place with multiple workstations, several shared printers, and users set up with individual accounts and in specific user groups.My favorite feature in the book is that for most configuration options, multiple methods of making the changes are discussed. There is information on using the command line, using the CUPS web interface. Also wonderful is the detailed description of the major options for configuration file settings, and a useful comparison between the language used for configuring the Apache and CUPS daemons.

There are not many books covering CUPS. This one - like the original "Cups: Common Unix Printing System" by Sweet - is also rather dated now but otherwise a good book to get you up to speed with cups administration.

il libro illustra in modo chiaro come installare, configurare ed amministratre il software CUPS non dando per scontato la conoscenza di alcun concetto.
