You've just made me a happy, happy user. I always wondered what it would take to get rid of CUPS, and today I've done it. Finally my print jobs are instantaneous here at work instead of being a mystery. Can't wait to go home and do the same with my personal laser.

Has anyone here experience with PDQ? It is a printing system that appears to address the problems cited in this thread.

 http://pdq.sourceforge.net/

Quoting from the website:

 Most casual unix users regard lp and lpr as
 black holes to which print jobs disappear,
 and may or may not emerge.

The arguments seem weak to me, and it sounds like a reinvention of lpd. It's unfortunate that many people see CUPS as the default choice.
