Printer-Applications-Framework

This framework aims to provide a systematic method to create snaps of printer driver packages to use with cups.

Installation

I recommend installing this framework in a custom directory rather than in root directories.

Download the source code and cd to that direcotry.
mkdir build
export pre="`pwd`/build"
./configure --prefix=$pre
make
make install

Now to use this framework with hplip: Make sure to set the pre environment variable.

Cd to hplip directory.
./configure --with-drvdir=$pre/share/cups/drv/hp/ --with-mimedir=$pre/share/cups/mime/ --with-hpppddir=$pre/share/cups/ppd/hp/ --with-cupsfilterdir=$pre/lib/cups/filter/ --with-cupsbackenddir=$pre/lib/cups/backend/ --prefix=$pre/
make
make install

How to use

cd $pre/bin
sudo ./server
