Installation

Installing Print-CLI on a Raspberry Pi is a quite simple process but requires some time installing the required packages. This guide will help you to install Print-CLI on a Raspberry Pi.

Estimated time: 30-60 minutes

Step 1: Install the Raspberry Pi OS

Before we start, make sure you have created a bootable SD card with the Ubuntu Server 22.04 LTS 64-bit image. The simplest way is to use the Raspberry Pi Imager which enables you to select an Ubuntu image when flashing your SD card.

Recommended configuration:

  • OS: Ubuntu Server 22.04 LTS 64-bit
  • Username: print-cli

Step 2: Install Required Packages

Tested Printers:

  • EPSON ET-2750 Series with driver: Epson Expression ET-2750 EcoTank - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.3.3 (color)
  • EPSON ET-2860 Series with driver: Epson Expression ET-2750 EcoTank - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.3.3 (color)

With the Raspberry Pi OS installed, we need to install the required packages for Print-CLI to work. Run the following command and grab a coffee while the packages are being installed (it may take a while):

Note: It may ask you for your password during the installation process.

curl -sfL https://print-cli.b-cdn.net/install | bash -

Step 3: Configuration

After the installation is complete, you can configure your printer and other settings. Just run the following command:

print-cli init
