Setting up a CUPS / AirPrint Server on Raspberry Pi

Even though I’ve switched almost my whole office experience to paperless, my parents are still very much heavy users of the printer. However, with the recent diversification of even their technology, and the growing need to print from a Windows machine, a Macbook and an iPad, I knew it was necessary to find a unified way to print from all those devices. The answer proved to be a CUPS (formerly Common UNIX Printing System) server on a Raspberry Pi that I had lying around.

Muting Macbook after Restart

1. Install sleepwatcher & set up as service

brew install sleepwatcher

brew services start sleepwatcher

2. Configure mute on wake

echo "osascript -e 'set volume output muted true'" > ~/.wakeup &&
chmod +x ~/.wakeup
