Selfhosting a printer (and scanner) server with UI

[alfredolin@sopuli.xyz]

I think it would be nice if my guests could easily print and scan when they are visiting.

Printing should be relatively easy nowadays with the printer on the same network. Scanning is another story. I found this nice project which works very nicely.

However, I would love to have the same but for printing, that way I would not have to do device specific troubleshooting/helping when trying to print something from guests' devices.

There is this project, which has a screenshot of what seems to be exactly what I'm looking for, but the issues are unanswered, there is no release, the building of the project is lacking.

Dockerfiles are incomplete, they are lacking copy yarn.lock and api lacks db initialization. The ports seem to be hardcoded. And once built, it doesn't work or at least I didn't manage yet. I got the frontend finally up but can't login. My knowledge is very limited so I'm checking with you if there is anything similar in the landscape or anyone willing to help on that project. Unfortunately I am locked out of github.

CUPS didn't work for me as I can't see an upload option on the web UI.
