From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Printing through Papercut server or AirPrint on Linux. (lemmy.world)

I am currently running EndeavourOS on my laptop, and I have all of the "printer" packages from installation installed. My company uses a Papercut NG server to manage printing, and I have an account in the system. However, there are no clear guides for installing the Papercut client on Linux, or printing to a managed printer from Linux. I also found out that AirPrint is available for all printers, but I need to log in if I want to print. Is there a way to print from my laptop using Endeavour?

Solution: Apparently there is a guide at https://demo.papercut.com/content/help/clienttool/topics/user-client-install-linux.html

What do you mean, there are no clear guides for Linux? https://demo.papercut.com/content/help/clienttool/topics/user-client-install-linux.html

It's even in the AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/papercut-client-bin

Thank you for finding this! I couldn't find this for some reason through Google.
