Description

This library is needed to access printers managed by the Common Unix Printing System (CUPS). Without it printing is most likely impossible so this is strongly recommended for office-type applications.

Resolution

On CrossOver 17 and greater, the simplest solution to fix this issue is to run:

/path/to/cxoffice/bin/cxfix missinglibcups missinglibcups.amd64

Or add --show-all to see how CrossOver would fix it on your platform and others.

Alternatively you may try one of the commands below.

• For 32-bit Windows applications
  • 64-bit Arch Linux : pacman -Syu lib32-libcups
  • Debian : apt-get install libcups2:i386
  • 64-bit Fedora : yum install cups-libs.i686 cups-libs.x86_64
  • 64-bit openSUSE >= 11.2 : zypper install cups-libs-32bit
  • 64-bit openSUSE >= 15.0 : zypper install libcups2-32bit
     
• For 64-bit Windows applications
  • Arch Linux : pacman -Syu libcups
  • Debian : apt-get install libcups2:amd64
  • Fedora : yum install cups-libs.x86_64
  • openSUSE >= 11.2 : zypper install cups-libs
  • openSUSE >= 15.0 : zypper install libcups2

Notes:

• cxfix --show-all may have more up-to-date fixes.
• The commands usually also apply to newer versions of the distributions above as well as derived distributions. So for instance a fix for Debian 7 may still be valid for the latest Debian Testing and is typically also applicable to Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Deepin and Pop! OS. Similarly a fix for Fedora likely also works on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS, etc.
