If you do not know how to do basic system information search and some
basic system administraton, it becomes quite frustrating.
In order to help people in this situation, I wrote "Debian Reference"
and it is provided as package and web site information. For your case,
following section may be of your interest:
http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/ch06.en.html#_the_print_server_and_utility
I hope that this helps you. My motivation to create this whole
document was started to get my "printing" right :-)
