Monitor job statuses, queue lengths, and error rates to ensure smooth printing tasks. + +The plugin uses CUPS shared library to connect and monitor the server. + +This collector is supported on all platforms. + +This collector supports collecting metrics from multiple instances of this integration, including remote instances. + +The plugin needs to access the server. Netdata sets permissions during installation time to reach the server through its library. + +### Default Behavior + +#### Auto-Detection + +The plugin detects when CUPS server is running and tries to connect to it. + +#### Limits + +The default configuration for this integration does not impose any limits on data collection. + +#### Performance Impact + +The default configuration for this integration is not expected to impose a significant performance impact on the system. + + +## Metrics + +Metrics grouped by *scope*. + +The scope defines the instance that the metric belongs to. An instance is uniquely identified by a set of labels. + + + +### Per CUPS instance + + + +This scope has no labels. + +Metrics: + +| Metric | Dimensions | Unit | +|:------|:----------|:----| +| cups.dests_state | idle, printing, stopped | dests | +| cups.dests_option | total, acceptingjobs, shared | dests | +| cups.job_num | pending, held, processing | jobs | +| cups.job_size | pending, held, processing | KB | + +### Per destination + + + +This scope has no labels. + +Metrics: + +| Metric | Dimensions | Unit | +|:------|:----------|:----| +| cups.destination_job_num | pending, held, processing | jobs | +| cups.destination_job_size | pending, held, processing | KB | + + + +## Alerts + +There are no alerts configured by default for this integration. + + +## Setup + +### Prerequisites + +#### Minimum setup + +The CUPS server must be installed and running. If you installed `netdata` using a package manager, it is also necessary to install the package `netdata-plugin-cups`. + + +### Configuration + +#### File + +The configuration file name for this integration is `netdata.conf`. +Configuration for this specific integration is located in the `[plugin:cups]` section within that file. + +The file format is a modified INI syntax. The general structure is: + +```ini +[section1] + option1 = some value + option2 = some other value + +[section2] + option3 = some third value +``` +You can edit the configuration file using the `edit-config` script from the +Netdata [config directory](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/configure/nodes.md#the-netdata-config-directory). + +```bash +cd /etc/netdata 2>/dev/null || cd /opt/netdata/etc/netdata +sudo ./edit-config netdata.conf +``` +#### Options + + + +
