Is there any guide on how to make a Linux-based print server which would be autodetectable by all the major OSes? I feel like we need a dedicated print server for our office (where there are many computers running Ubuntu, Windows and MacOS) because the printer doesn't work reliably enough. I have never actually seen such a scenario in the wild - people seem to always connect to network printers directly (they also used LPT and USB printers shared via the standard means of Windows in the past).



You just want to make sure you have IPP and Bonjour enabled and it should Just Work. A quick google finds https://www.dailycupoftech.com/how-to-set-up-a-print-server-... which looks about right
