[abhishekms123]

I have installed nextcloud on linux vps (Digital ocean) and also installed printer application in nextcloud. But when i print a file from nextcloud installed on vps it shows msg "print succeded" but i didnt get the printed file from our local printer. So can you please tell me the steps to connect local printer to a vps and print a file from nextcloud

The currenty way this app works is that you have to set up a printer locally on the server where your Nextcloud is installed using CUPS. The printer can be connected directly to the server or any kind of networked printer that is supported by CUPS. From your VPS, you would have to set up some kind of VPN or SSH tunnel to your local network where your printer resides and then set up CUPS on your VPS.
