printer

sudo apt-get install cups

localhost:631

Check that group exists:

grep lpadmin /etc/group

Add user to group:

sudo usermod -a -G lpadmin mandark

Cups server:

http://localhost:631

Go to Administration and add the printer of your choice. I found the IP address of the printer connected to the network and added it as https://IP_ADDRESS_HERE and could print without having to install any device specific driver.
