Yes. I thought CUPS was already installed - the reason the errors threw me. I
did 'apt-get install cupsys' and adding a printer became a simple process.
On the subject of printing: which printing system provides me the most
flexibility? CUPS is the easiest to configure and use. The lpr option allowed
me to set the output to greyscale (perfect since I mostly print text) and
draftmode. Printing from the console allows me to specify page headers and
other information. Is there a way to bring all those options into CUPS?
Thanks.
