## Repositories
To ensure continued stability and reliability, Manjaro uses its own dedicated software branches rather than relying on those provided by Arch:
- **unstable**: synced several times a day with Arch's package releases; only a subset of them are modified to suit Manjaro; people using this branch need to have the skills to get themselves out of trouble; thanks to the feedback from these users, many issues are caught and fixed at this level; the very latest software is be located here, and using this branch is usually safe but - in rare cases - may cause issues with your system
- **testing**: this branch is the second line of defense; users living in this branch refine the work done by users in the _unstable_ branch by providing further feedback on the packages they receive as updates
- **stable**: packages which land here have gone through roughly a couple of weeks testing by users using the _unstable_ and _testing_ branches; these packages are usually free of any problems
One can use the [branch comparison] tool to check in what branch a package is available.
## Printing
```sh
pamac install manjaro-printer
sudo gpasswd -a ${USER} sys
sudo systemctl enable --now cups.service
# configure printers in ui
pamac install system-config-printer
```
