8.2.2. Graphical printer configuration
Most distributions come with a GUI for configuring networked and
local (parallel port or USB) printers. They let you choose the
printer type from a list and allow easy testing. You don't have to
bother about syntax and location of configuration files. Check your
system documentation before you attempt installing your
printer.
CUPS can also be configured using a web interface that runs on
port 631 on your computer. To check if this feature is enabled, try
browsing to
localhost:631/help or
localhost:631/.
