Sorry Fink User for this question, but no one's answering it at the 
Apple Discussion group.

I'm totally lost here. Ok, I downloaded CUPS, but I see according to 
docs that I need to install
     - JPEG 6b or higher
     - PNG 1.0.6 or higher
     - TIFF 3.4 or higher
     - ZLIB 1.1.3 or higher
Whereas I feel the need to be sure any applications or libraries are, 
more or less, OSX specific, I would think they should be available 
through Apple. But they're not. So, I went to macosx.forked.net, where 
they are.

The JPEG self installs - great. But PNG requires zlib. Downloading 
either of those doesn't cause them to self install, but according to the 
README you have to "make install" them. Fine, I'm used to that.

But my first question would be where should I perform these actions? 
i.e. in which directory?
Well, make apparently isn't a known command. It asks me makeg? which 
apparently isn't the same thing.

In the end, my real question is: what exactly should I do to configure 
CUPS? Would I be better of just going through www.cups.org instructions 
instead?

Oh! And per instructions I found somewhere, I added the following line 
to inetd.conf

printer stream  tcp     nowait  root   /usr/libexec/cups/daemon/cups-lpd 
cups-lpd -o document- format=application/octet-stream
