### Install Packages ###

# Sync RPI system
sudo apt update -y && sudo apt upgrade -y

# Install
sudo apt install -y cups samba

# Add an administrative user for the printer. Replace pi with your username
sudo usermod -a -G lpadmin $USER

Also had to try and get an old LBP3000 printer working as well so did this as well

#!/usr/bin/env bash
# LBP3000 CAPT driver on raspberry pi compile process
# Based on https://namvu.net/2021/07/setup-a-family-printer-with-a-raspberry-pi-1-and-canon-lbp-2900/
# But updated to use https://github.com/mounaiban/captdriver which is a more maintained fork

# Installing CUPS and the rest of the perquisites:
sudo apt install -y build-essential git autoconf libtool cups libcups2-dev libcupsimage2-dev

# Grab the source code:
git clone https://github.com/mounaiban/captdriver.git

# Compile the driver
pushd captdriver
autoreconf -i
./configure
make
make ppd
popd

# Install captdriver
#   The make install command above only copies the rastertocapt binary to the /usr/local/bin directory, 
#   while setting the necessary file ownerships and permissions. 
#   The cp command is still needed to place a copy of rastertocapt inside the CUPS filter directory.
pushd captdriver
sudo make install
popd

# Copy the files to their relevant locations
pushd captdriver
sudo cp src/rastertocapt /usr/lib/cups/filter/
sudo cp ppd/Canon*.ppd /usr/share/ppd/custom/
popd

Update: Seems like the above method is not reliable for LBP3000 on raspbian and should be done on ubuntu server distro instead on a raspberry pi zero V2 (Ref: mounaiban/captdriver#8 )

Update: Able to get this working on a normal linux x64 PC but would rather this work on raspberry pi zero V1 . However for now, cleaned up the script and placed it in this gist in case anyone needs it https://gist.github.com/mofosyne/c84d23d863454478b4d192b9ca9afd5b let me know if this helped you :)

Also I'm sure there is a cleaner way to patch /etc/samba/smb.conf without using patch... but haven't figured out one yet. toml-cli looks good, but not sure how easy it would be to get into raspberry pi.
