Now this is actually one of the most common usage of the Pi so there’s already plenty of guides out there, and there’s really no information in this post that can’t be found elsewhere on the Internet, but I’m gonna do a write up anyway, purely for the sake of documenting my process.įor the software we’ll be using CUPS running on top of Linux, naturally, since we don’t have a lot of options on that front.

I figure there’s one thing I haven’t tried turning it into: a print server.

Ok so after using it as an Media Server (OSMC, Kodi), Audio Server (Volumio, Moode), and most recently a CloudFlare DDNS updater on top of Raspbian Lite, I’m running out of things to do with my old RPi. Setup a family printer with a Raspberry Pi 1, CUPS and Canon LBP 2900 7
