Re: lprng needed by AUCTeX?

I would like to know how you decided to install the "cups" package, since its
description says it provides a print *server*. Nevertheless the cups package
depends on the package "cups-clients" which contains "client programs (SysV)",
i.e., the lp command for submitting a print job.

So you don'nt need another package for printing with dvips, just change the
configuration of dvips in /etc/texmf/dvips/config/config.ps line 20 should then
read (see comments in this file)

%o |lp
