ARM NV+ / Duo v2 CUPS print install USB printer
OK, I tried to install CUPS for printing on the ARM NV+ v2 , failed and had to do a factory reset. Second time around I was not so gung-ho, and at least it was done on a fresh install. You can follo...
First, better to check that your printer is supported by CUPS. http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collabor ... enprinting should help.
You need to install the CUPS software : see "apt-get install cups libcups2" in the instructions. Might be a good idea to a "apt-get update" first (note: NEVER apt-get upgrade!!). After that the rest is configuration. There's enough linux support on the web to find any problems with CUPS, so yes if you're reasonably technical you should have no problem. There is a web interface to CUPS.
I no longer have a ReadyNAS so can't help much further - I'm sure others can. Good luck; you're very unlikely to break anything whatever you do, so go for it! I found it quite impossible to use the ReadyNAS (or any Linux NAS) without SSH and at least a basic understanding of Linux commands.
