I starting to do an upgrade on a small network of debian systems. Moving from 1.3 to 3.0.
It seems like time to replace lpr with CUPS. I am having a problem getting a handle on CUPS. Oh, I have set up single systems with attached printers without problems. I have never seen any setup of networked printers except via lpr. I have a couple of LaserJet 6L's and LJ 4000's that I'd like to connect to the LAN via NetGear PS101 Mini Printer Servers. I am starting with one LJ 6L. 6L's don't do postscript, LJ4000's do. Specific questions: What "Device" to use for a free standing printer, http, ipp, lpd/lpr? If lpd/lpr, how do you construct a URI for such a printer? Do I want 10 desktop machines to directly talk to a LJ4000 or have an intermediary host be their server? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
