This is the caveat for me for now.

To run locally a powerful graphics card with at least 6 GB VRAM is recommended. Otherwise generating images will take very long!

I’ve got decent RAM on an I9, but my graphics card, which is what matters here, isn’t up to par.

Superlior you say? Superl!

super productivity is pretty good.

You can also sync between your phone, desktop, etc using different sync options including Dropbox, webdav, local file, etc

Wow, that’s so messed up: I didn’t know HP did that… I think it might just be a matter of time before others follow suit.

Sounds very Wireshark worthy!

That would be cool.

Here’s my new setup that might not work for everyone, but I’d recommend thinking about if you’re able to.

1. Network printers are blocked from Internet by my router. They have static IP addresses allocated (permanent DHCP leases) for convenience.

2. I have some Canon laser printers. I don’t want to install Canon software across my devices, so I setup a cups print server (lxc container) where I installed the software.

3. I setup and shared the printers (local network only), made them discoverable.

4. I use the CUPS web GUI over ssh tunnel if I need to check on job queues and do maintenance/admin tasks (don’t usually have to).

Clients immediately find the printers on the server, no driver required.

As a bonus, I made the margins 0 on the CUPS ppd on the server so that I get to print without margins when so desired (Canon has fixed minimum margins otherwise).

The one caveat is that the Canon drivers don’t work on raspberry pi (arm), so while I have a to-do to get around that by using a virtualization layer, you need a separate Intel/AMD machine for the print server if your printer doesn’t support ARM.
