# chuckcharlie/cups-airprint-brother
|
||
|
||
Fork from [quadportnick/cups-airprint](https://github.com/quadportnick/docker-cups-airprint)
|
||
|
||
This Ubuntu-based Docker image runs a CUPS instance that is meant as an AirPrint relay for printers that are already on the network but not AirPrint capable. I am running this on CentOS. I forked the original to add support for my Brother MFC-7840w printer, and use the latest Ubuntu base.
|
||
|
||
## Prereqs
|
||
* Install avahi on local host.
|
||
* `yum install avahi`
|
||
* `systemctl start avahi-daemon`
|
||
* `systemctl enable avahi-daemon`
|
||
|
||
## Configuration
|
||
|
||
### Volumes:
|
||
* `/config`: where the persistent printer configs will be stored
|
||
* `/services`: where the Avahi service files will be generated
|
||
|
||
### Variables:
|
||
* `CUPSADMIN`: the CUPS admin user you want created
|
||
* `CUPSPASSWORD`: the password for the CUPS admin user
|
||
|
||
### Ports:
|
||
* `631`: the TCP port for CUPS must be exposed
|
||
|
||
### Example run command:
|
||
```
|
||
docker run --name cups -p 631:631 --restart unless-stopped \
|
||
-v /opt/cups/services:/services \
|
||
-v /opt/cups/config:/config \
|
||
-v /var/run/dbus:/var/run/dbus \
|
||
-e CUPSADMIN="<username>" \
|
||
-e CUPSPASSWORD="<password>" \
|
||
chuckcharlie/cups-avahi:latest
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Using
|
||
CUPS will be configurable at http://[diskstation]:631 using the CUPSADMIN/CUPSPASSWORD when you do something administrative.
|
||
|
||
## Notes
|
||
* I had to run the [airprint-generate.py](/root/root/airprint-generate.py) script on the local host to get the avahi service file to generate.
|
||
* `python airprint-generate.py -H localhost -p 631 -u admin -d <your services dir>`
