Re: Installing CUPS
> How do I know if I have CUPS installed?
'apt-cache policy cupsys' will show you which version is installed
'ps aux | grep cupsd' will show you if cupsd is running
'netstat -anp -A inet | grep 631', issued as root, will show you who (if
anyone) is listening on port 631/tcp.
For a list of other packages related to CUPS which might be of interest, try
'apt-cache search cups | grep cups | sort'. I recommend installing at least
the cupsys, cupsys-client, and cupsys-bsd packages. The others you probably
don't need, especially since you're using kprinter.

Not that I'm aware of. But there's a CUPS Quick Start, as well as loads of
other information, at http://www.linuxprinting.org. Also see /usr/share/
cups/doc-root/documentation.html for abundant documentation, once you have
CUPS installed.
Good luck,
Andrew.
