Simplifying Configuring CUPS Printing Clients on a Network

If you have a server computer with a printer attached and a client computer across the network there’s a super simple way to configure cups, create a “/etc/cups/client.conf” file and stick a line like this, with the server's IP address in it:
       ServerName 12.34.56.78
The client computer then acts like it’s actually connected to the server for printing purposes, having access to all the server printers without any fuss. What a time saver compared to the insanity that is the alternative, using the ipp driver etc.
