Printscan server

Version 3.1

This repository contains files used to set up our printscan server on a freshly installed Armbian. Target is Bullseye.

Introduction

(see wiki for need and concept explanation)

Version 3.1 implementation works roughly as follows:

SBC

• the Armbian-based device is connected to local network, and an all-in-one printer is connected to it via USB;
• SANE and CUPS services are installed and running on the device;
• CUPS is configured to provide a remote printer to network;
• SANE is configured to provide local scan;
• scanservjs runs on the SBC, providing a web interface for scan.

Files

Files in this repository cover all the SBC setup.

Installation

• setup.sh is a script automating the installation and configuration of required software
• cupsd.conf is the config file for CUPS, set by setup script

TODO

• When new conf-sync will be available, adapt functions get_conf() and set_conf().
• Add an update script for scanservjs.
