Which is why CUPS doesn't. CUPS is configurable via ordinary text configuration files like most Unix programs, a web interface (which is what I use), GNOME or KDE frontends, probably a number of miscelleaneous toolkit frontends, too... Personally, I'm surprised there's still people with printers who *haven't* tried CUPS. For the vast majority of situations, it's incredibly easier to configure, and usually more reliable about output, than lprng. -- Joe Wreschnig <piman@debian.org>
