 Configuring UNIX/Linux printing using CUPS
You can configure the CUPS for LPR printing or IPP printing.
 Installing the CUPS for LPR printing
The PPD must first be copied onto the local machine, the printer installed, and then the PPD configured. The printer is
then installed and configured using CUPS via the browser. The PPD can be copied to the root directory and extracted.
After extracting the PPD file, restart the CUPS daemon.
The PPD is placed in the "/usr/share/cups/model/Toshiba" directory (which will require root privileges and the
Toshiba directory may need to be created). The PPD can be simply copied to the appropriate directory and the CUPS
daemon re-started.
