Thanks Norm - my build 130 (updated earlier this month from my original 111)
has LP as the default. I see from pkg manager that CUPS and CUPS-manager are
there but not installed. After I install CUPS from the repo I have to disable
LP. I can't have both - is that right ?
For CUPS you want the following printing related packages (most should
already be installed)
SUNWpc print commands (LP or CUPS)
SUNWcups-libs libcups and friends
SUNWcups The CUPS scheduler and friends
SUNWpycups Python bindings for libcups
SUNWcups-manager system-config-printer (GUI mgmt tool)
SUNWhal-cups-utils HAL/CUPS/system-config-printer
auto-detect/configure bits
SUNWhpijs HPLIP printer support
SUNWgutenprint Gutenprint printer support
SUNWfoomatic-db Foomatic database
SUNWfoomatic-db-engine Foomatic CUPS support
SUNWghostscript need I say more
SUNWgsfot Ghostscript fonts
SUNWgsfst more fonts.
SUNWgtk2-print-cups CUPS support for GTK print dialog
Once these packages are installed execute the following:
This imports the service manifest for the CUPS related services
$ pfexec svccfg import /var/svc/manifest/application/cups.xml
This disables the LP related services and enables the CUPS services.
$ pfexec /usr/sbin/print-service -s cups
That should make CUPS the default print service on your system.
The blog entry I referred to should be of help.
