CUPS2.4.20-1

Print jobs from a Linux system through CUPS, the standard printing stack that connects applications with printers and provides the operating system’s established print service. It gives users and administrators a common foundation for sending documents to local or networked printers instead of relying on separate printing systems for each application.

CUPS is standards-based and supports the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP), a widely used method for communicating with printers. OpenPrinting software works with most modern printers without extra drivers, while its compatibility resources include driverless printer information and a Foomatic database for older models supported by free-software drivers. OpenPrinting also develops printer applications that can bring some legacy printers to current Windows systems, alongside drivers, tools, and related printing resources.

The official Snap build is intended for Linux users and system administrators managing printing on workstations or shared systems. It is published by OpenPrinting under an open-source license and is used within the wider OpenPrinting effort to improve printing across Linux, Unix, and other operating systems.

Installation requires Linux and snapd, and this build targets x86_64 (amd64) systems.
