The `cups` sensor platform is using the open source printing system [CUPS](https://www.cups.org/) to show details about your printers.
|
|
|
|
To set up the sensor the "Queue Name" of the printer is needed. The fastest way to get it, is to visit the CUPS webinterface at "http://[IP ADDRESS PRINT SERVER]:631" and go to "Printers".

To enable the CUPS sensor, add the following lines to your `configuration.yaml`:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
sensor:
|
|
- platform: cups
|
|
printers:
|
|
- C410
|
|
- C430
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Configuration variables:
|
|
|
|
- **printers** array (*Required*): List of printers to add.
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class='note'>
|
|
You will need to install the `python3-dev` or `python3-devel` and the development files for CUPS (`libcups2-dev` or`cups-devel`) package on your system manually (eg. `sudo apt-get install python3-dev libcups2-dev` or `sudo dnf -y install python3-devel cups-devel`) along with a compiler (`gcc`).
