Dear Daniel and Tobias,

I'm having trouble with cups on guix-system as well. I added it to the
system with

> (service  cups-service-type
>           (cups-configuration
>    	(web-interface? #t)
>    	(extensions (list cups-filters hplip-minimal))))

When the system is restarted and I try to access cups via localhost:631,
after clicking on some (admin) link to add a printer (or similar) it
takes 2minutes (exactly) for the page to show up. In
/var/log/cups/access_log and .../error_log numerrous repeated entries

> ==> /var/log/cups/access_log <==
> localhost - root [03/Dec/2021:15:26:11 +0100] "GET /admin/conf/cupsd.conf HTTP/1.1" 200 0 - -

are found.

At some point is says:

As you can see, the first messages all happen instantly and after the
max client message there is a 2 min pause.

I have also another problem related to my printer wich is a Samsung
SCX-472x-series (accessed over ethernet). On openprinting.org the
suggested driver is
(https://www.openprinting.org/printer/Samsung/Samsung-SCX-472x) from
Samsung. So far I used it on debian and arch and it worked perfect, but
I thik it's non-GPL.

I can import only the ppd file for my printer but this refers to some
filter
/gnu/store/2q9cn98ahgba3fjgvjlnlvb4j928z17j-cups-server-bin/lib/cups/filter/rastertospl
which is not present in guix (but would be installed by the Samsung
installer to some place noexistent in guix). 

Any idea how to prodeed to get my printing working?

Cheers,

	Alex
