Implemented Functions

Currently only few basic functions are implemented, however the following set is pretty enough for basic printing and job management purposes.

  • cupsGetDests
  • cupsGetDefault
  • cupsGetJobs
  • cupsPrintFile
  • cupsCancelJob

Testing

The npm test command will list currently installed destinations (printers) and print jobs for default printer.
