Make sure to create a named volume to store your CUPS configuration. Pre-defining an empty named volume with for e.g docker create volume printnode will allow /etc/cups directory to be copied over into the new volume. Failure to provide a working CUPS configuration directory will result in a broken container.
docker run \
-e PRINT_CLIENT_EMAIL='[email protected]' \
-e PRINT_CLIENT_PASSWORD='123abc' \
-e CUPS_USER='admin' \
-e CUPS_PASSWORD='123abc' \
--network='host' \
--volume printnode:/etc/cups \
drewzh/printnode- CUPS_USER - The username to secure CUPS
- CUPS_PASSWORD - The password to secure CUPS
- PRINT_CLIENT_EMAIL - Email you use to login to PrintNode
- PRINT_CLIENT_PASSWORD - Password you use to login to PrintNode
To add printers, you can use IPP (which negates the need for drivers) by attaching to the running container and running something like the following:
lpadmin -p LabelPrinter -E -v ipp://192.168.86.44/ipp -m everywhere
lpadmin -p LaserPrinter -E -v ipp://192.168.86.54/ipp -m everywhere
