The CUPS Web Interface may be disabled by default on your Mac.

Enabling it is easy and allows access to the printing system to set up your default settings:



  • Open the Terminal application.
  • Copy the following string and paste into Terminal: cupsctl WebInterface=yes
  • Hit return, and close Terminal.
  • Now you can access the CUPS Interface by entering  localhost:631  into your browser address bar.

CUPS is the standards-based, open source printing system developed by Apple Inc. for OS X® and other UNIX®-like operating systems. CUPS uses the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) to support printing to local and network printers. https://cups.org/
