Hello. I'm running a LEAF uClibc Bering 3.0 system currently to do simple Internet connection sharing with a couple PCs on my network. I'm in the market for a printer and rather than paying the extra money for a hardware print server, I'd like to see if I can make my LEAF box handle my printer sharing.
The printer I'm looking at buying is a HP LaserJet P2015. Like most modern printers, it's exclusively USB which should be fine. My LEAF system has USB 1.1 ports and LEAF should support generic USB devices (not just storage) as far as I know. I would think that I'd just need to configure my system to detect the printer and get an installation of CUPS up and running. I shouldn't have too much trouble with print spooling since I can pretty easily upgrade the RAM so as to allow for a larger spool. Browsing the available packages on the LEAF site says that there aren't any packages available to do this (no CUPS, no LPR, etc). Am I overlooking something? Has anyone done this before? Thanks.
