labeling for the EDC
Project description
edc-label
Print labels from for clinic/edc projects
To add print servers update settings.CUPS_SERVERS:
# settings.py ... CUPS_SERVERS = ["localhost", "prn.sample.org"] ...
If not set, the default print server is “localhost”.
Note: it is fine to just configure the local CUPS server (localhost) with remote printers as per below.
CUPS and printer Installation
Install CUPS Print Server:
sudo apt-get install cups sudo cp /etc/cups/cupsd.conf /etc/cups/cupsd.conf.original sudo chmod a-w /etc/cups/cupsd.conf.original
Edit /etc/cups/cupsd.conf to listen on your public IP:
sudo nano /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
Add the last line with your public IP:
Listen 127.0.0.1:631 # existing loopback Listen Listen /var/run/cups/cups.sock # existing socket Listen --> Listen PUBLIC_IP:631 # Listen on the LAN interface, Port 631 (IPP)
Restart CUPS:
sudo systemctl restart cups.service
Add a remote printer by name to your CUPS server
LOCAL_PRINTER_NAME: printer as named on the EDC, your server
REMOTE_CUPS_IP_ADDRESS: IP of remote CUPS server
REMOTE_PRINTER_NAME: printer name installed on remote CUPS server
lpadmin -p LOCAL_PRINTER_NAME -E -v ipp://REMOTE_CUPS_IP_ADDRESS/printers/REMOTE_PRINTER_NAME
For example:
lpadmin -p ambition_clinic_label_printer -E -v ipp://154.70.150.42/printers/ambition_clinic_label_printer lpadmin -p ambition_lab_label_printer -E -v ipp://154.70.150.42/printers/ambition_lab_label_printer lpadmin -p specimen_reception_label_printer -E -v ipp://154.70.150.42/printers/specimen_reception_label_printer
Add an IP addressable remote printer
REMOTE_CUPS_IP_ADDRESS: printer IP installed on remote CUPS server
lpadmin -p LOCAL_PRINTER_NAME -E -v ipp://REMOTE_CUPS_IP_ADDRESS/ipp/print -m everywhere
For example:
lpadmin -p PRINTER_NAME -E -v ipp://REMOTE_IP_ADDRESS/ipp/print -m everywhere
