I want to access System Settings=>Printers on my CentOS-7 server

Is that possible?

If you set up the CentOS 7 box with a shared display accessible by
TigerVNC or Remmina or RDP or some other remote display mechanism.

Thanks for your response.

But do I really need to install software of this kind
to see System Settings?
I was hoping I could use ssh in some way.
Eg I can ssh into the CentOS box and run firefox or kmail.

You might try accessing the CUPS daemon via

http://your-centos7-box:631

Not quite the same, but you can see what the print subsystem is doing.

I have been doing that.
But as far as I can see, CUPS does not offer any way of seeing toner level.
