Hi

You can do the same thing in cups with
    lpadmin -p jerrypc -m laserjet.ppd.gz -v socket://[ip_address].
The only trick is finding the correct ppd for your printer. The conversion
problem is pretty much the same for cups or lprng.

Cheers for your reply jerry.

But I think my issue is with the conversion, NOT with the network link to the printer!

The ppd that I was using on lfs was newer than the ppd that I had installed on slackware, so I might try using the older version and see what happens.

Cheers
