I'm thinking the same thing. I may go back to RedHat myself. How can
they ship a product for home use with something as basic as printing
so badly broken?
Here's my CUPS problems:
Printer: HP 932C
Test page prints fine.
dvips prints out correctly
# lpr .bashrc prints but the margins both left and right are wrong.
ps-print-buffer in Xemacs, prints the postscript commands. The filter
doesn't convert the postscript, instead it prints the %!PS-Adobe-3.0
etc. Also, it has the staircase effect.
