• CASA:
CASA (Common Authentication Services Adapter) is a separate package that you
install with the iPrint client to cache your username and password for secure printers. If you do
not access secure printers, then you do not need CASA.

Using iPrint
The following steps are taken when installing a printer and printing to it:
1. Using your Web browser, you access the iPrint Printers List or a custom map, as specified by
your administrator.
2. When you click a printer in the list or on a map, the iPrint plug-in creates the printer and installs
the associated PostScript* Printer Definition (PPD) file in CUPS. After a printer is installed,
you do not need to repeat this process for the same printer.
3. With the iPrint printer installed, you can print from any application as you normally would. The
printer appears as printer in your printer list. The application sends the print job to CUPS for
processing.
4. CUPS gives the print job to the iPrint backend, which sends it to the iPrint Manager. When the
printer is ready, the iPrint Manager sends the job to the printer.
1.2 Understanding Security
The Linux iPrint Client is packaged in two different, specialized installations that control access to
the workstation's print system. The following table explains the differences between the two clients.
