import (
    "fmt"

    cups "github.com/vopi181/gcups"
)

func main() {
    printers := cups.NewDefaultConnection()
    for _, dest := range printers.Dests {
        fmt.Printf("%v (%v)\n", dest.Name, dest.Status())
    }
    printers.Dest[0].PrintFile("/tmp/test.txt", "Hello From The Otherside")

}
