Does anyone know how to get CUPS
running on iOS
? We are trying to print to a networked Epson
receipt printer ( TM-T88V
) from the iPad, using CUPS
or other method but we are running into a brickwall getting CUPS to run on iOS. I know for a fact that this can be done, as an iPad app can already do it just by passing in the IP address of the printer. How are they doing this?

2UPDATE: looking at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4652694/why-can-i-not-receive-a-response-from-a-tcp-ip-capable-printer, it appears you can connect directly to the printer using LPR/LPD on port 515, but I dont know how to use the LPR/LPD protocol from iOS. Is there a library for this? Also, I can send raw data to port 9100 on the device (from putty.exe on windows) and it will print whatever I type – looselycoupled Feb 03 '11 at 23:41

@looselycoupled Have you had any chance to find out how it works? I wanted to do the same thing but I'm kind of stuck, is there any library for doing this? or any document that I can follow. It would be great if you can help me with this. – fafa92 Sep 02 '18 at 18:55
