It has its own
    <a class="link" href="http://localhost:631" title="CUPS" target="_top">configuration
    interface</a> which is accessible via an Internet browser, but Mageia
    offers its own tool for installing printers called system-config-printer
    which is shared with other distributions such as Fedora, Mandriva, Ubuntu
    and openSUSE.</p><p>You should enable the non-free repository before proceeding with the
    installation, because some drivers may only be available in this
    way.</p><p>Printer installation is carried out in the
    <span class="guilabel">Hardware</span> section of the Mageia Control Centre. Select
    the <span class="guilabel">Configure printing and scanning</span> tool<sup>[<a id="d4e1174" href="#ftn.d4e1174" class="footnote">17</a>]</sup>.</p><p>MCC will ask for the installation two packages:</p><div class="blockquote"><blockquote class="blockquote"><p>task-printing-server</p><p>task-printing-hp</p></blockquote></div><p>It is necessary to accept this installation to continue. Up to 230MB
    of dependencies are needed.</p><p>To add a printer, choose the "Add" printer button. The system will
    try to detect any printers and the ports available. The screenshot
    displays a printer connected to a parallel port. If a printer is detected,
    such as a printer on a USB port, it will be displayed on the first line.
    The window will also attempt to configure a network printer.</p></div><div class="section" title="Automatically detected printer"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title"><a id="automatic"><!----></a>Automatically detected printer</h4></div></div></div><p>This usually refers to USB printers. The utility automatically finds
    the name of the printer and displays it. Select the printer and then click
    "Next". If there is a known driver associated for the printer, it will be
    automatically installed. If there is more than one driver or no known
    drivers, a window will ask you to select or furnish one, as explained in
    the next paragraph. Continue with <a class="xref" href="system-config-printer.html#terminate" title="Complete the installation process">the section called “Complete the installation process”</a></p></div><div class="section" title="No automatically detected printer"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title"><a id="non_automatic"><!----></a>No automatically detected printer</h4></div></div></div><div class="mediaobject"><img src="images/printer3.png"/></div><p>When you select a port, the system loads a driver list and displays
    a window to select a driver. The choice can be made through one of the
    following options.</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc"><li class="listitem"><p>Select printer from database</p></li></ul></div><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc"><li class="listitem"><p>provide PPD file</p></li></ul></div><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc"><li class="listitem"><p>search for a driver to download</p></li></ul></div><p>By selecting from the database, the window suggests a printer
    manufacturer first, and then a device and a driver associated with it. If
    more than one driver is suggested, select one which is recommended, unless
    you have encountered some problems with that one before, in this case
    select the one which know to work.</p></div><div class="section" title="Complete the installation process"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title"><a id="terminate"><!----></a>Complete the installation process</h4></div></div></div><p>After the driver selection, a window requests some information which
    will allow the system to designate and discover the printer. The first
    line is the name under which the device will appear in applications in the
    list of available printers. The installer then suggests printing a test
    page. After this step, the printer is added and appears in the list of
    available printers.</p></div><div class="section" title="Network printer"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title"><a id="network_printer"><!----></a>Network printer</h4></div></div></div><p>Network printers are printers that are attached directly to a wired
    or wireless network, that are attached to a printserver or that are
    attached to another workstation that serves as printserver.</p><div class="note" title="Note" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;"><h3 class="title">Note</h3><p>Often, it is better to configure the DHCP server to always
      associate a fixed IP address with the printer's MAC-address. Of course
      that should be the same as the IP address the printer of printserver is
      set to, if it has a fixed one.</p></div><p>The printer's Mac-address is a serial number given to the printer or
    printserver or computer it is attached to, that can be obtained from a
    configuration page printed by the printer or which may be written on a
    label on the printer or printserver. If your shared printer is attached to
    a Mageia system, you can run <span class="emphasis"><em><code class="code">ifconfig</code></em></span> on
    it as root to find the MAC-address. It is the sequence of numbers and
    letters after "HWaddr".</p><p>You can add your network printer by choosing the protocol it uses to
    talk to your computer over the network. If you don't know which protocol
    to choose, you can try the <span class="guilabel">Network Printer</span> -
    <span class="guilabel">Find Network Printer</span> option in the
    <span class="guilabel">Devices</span> menu and give the IP address of the printer
    in the box on the right, where it says "host".</p><p>If the tool recognises your printer or printserver, it will propose
    a protocol and a queue, but you can choose a more appropriate one from the
    list below it or give the correct queue name if it isn't in the
    list.</p><p>Look in the documentation that came with your printer or printserver
    to find which protocol(s) it supports and for possible specific queue
    names.</p></div><div class="section" title="Network printing protocols"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title"><a id="network_printing_protocols"><!----></a>Network printing protocols</h4></div></div></div><p>One current technique is one developed by Hewlett-Packard and known
    as JetDirect. It allows access to a printer directly connected to the
    network via an Ethernet port. You must know the IP-address at which the
    printer is known on the network. This technique is also used inside some
    ADSL-routers which contain an USB port to connect the printer. In this
    case, the IP-address is that of the router. Note that the tool "Hp Device
    manager" can manage dynamically configured IP-adress, setting an URI like
    <span class="emphasis"><em>hp:/net/&lt;name-of-the-printer&gt;</em></span> . In this case,
    fixed IP-adress is not required.</p><p>Choose the option <span class="guilabel">AppSocket/HP JetDirect</span> as the
    protocol and set the address in <span class="guilabel">Host:</span>, do not change
    the <span class="guilabel">Port Number</span>, unless you know that it needs to be
    changed. After the selection of the protocol, the selection of the driver
    is the same as above.</p><div class="mediaobject"><img src="images/printer5.png"/></div><p>The other protocols are:</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc"><li class="listitem"><p><span class="emphasis"><em>Internet Printing Protocol (ipp)</em></span>: a printer
        which can be accessed on a TCP/IP network via the IPP protocol, for
        example a printer connected to a station using CUPS. This protocol may
        also be used also by some ADSL-routers.</p></li></ul></div><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc"><li class="listitem"><p><span class="emphasis"><em>Internet Printing Protocol (https): </em></span>the
        same as ipp, but using http transport and with TLS secured protocol.

        connected to a station running Windows or a SMB server and
        shared.</p></li></ul></div><p>The URI can also be added directly. Here are some examples on how to
    form the URI:</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc"><li class="listitem"><p>Appsocket</p><p><code class="uri">socket://ip-address-or-hostname:port </code></p></li><li class="listitem"><p>Internet Printing Protocol (IPP)</p><p><code class="uri">ipp://ip-address-or-hostname:port-number/resource</code></p><p><code class="uri">http://ip-address-or-hostname:port-number/resource</code></p></li><li class="listitem"><p>Line Printer Daemon (LPD) Protocol</p><p><code class="uri">lpd://username@ip-address-or-hostname/queue</code></p></li></ul></div><p>Additional information can be found in the <a class="link" href="http://www.cups.org/documentation.php/doc-1.5/network.html" target="_top">CUPS
    documentation.</a></p></div><div class="section" title="Device Properties"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title"><a id="properties"><!----></a>Device Properties</h4></div></div></div><p>You can access the properties of the device. The menu allows access
    to parameters for the CUPS server. By default a CUPS server is launched on
    your system, but you can specify a different one with the
    <span class="guimenu">Server</span> | <span class="guimenuitem">Connect...</span> menu,
    another window which gives access to the tuning of other specific
    parameters of the server, following <span class="guimenu">Server</span> |
    <span class="guimenuitem">Settings.</span></p></div><div class="section" title="Troubleshoot"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title"><a id="d4e1277"><!----></a>Troubleshoot</h4></div></div></div><p>You can find some information on occurring errors during printing by
    inspecting <code class="filename">/var/log/cups/error_log</code></p><p>You can also access to a tool to diagnose problems using the
    <span class="guimenu">Help</span> | <span class="guilabel">Troubleshoot</span> menu.</p></div><div class="section" title="Specifics"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title"><a id="specificities"><!----></a>Specifics</h4></div></div></div><p>It is possible that some drivers for specific printers are not
    available in Mageia or are not functional. In this case, have a look at
    the <a class="link" href="http://openprinting.org/printers/" target="_top">openprinting</a>
    site to check if a driver for your device is available. If yes, check if
    the package is already present in Mageia and in this case install it
    manually. Then, redo the installation process to configure the printer. In
    all cases, report the problem in bugzilla or on the forum if you are
    comfortable with this tool and furnish the model and driver information
    and whether the printer works or not after installation. Here are some
    sources to find other up-to-date drivers or for more recent
    devices.</p><p><span class="bold"><strong>Brother printers</strong></span></p><p><a class="link" href="http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public_s/id/linux/en/download_prn.html" target="_top">This
