Also if it's the CUPS package from the CompanionCD
(CCD), SFWcups, then you need to put some links in
place so it knows where to find the foomatic's stuff
(as it's no longer on the CCD). So add symbolic links
for ...
# ln -s /usr/lib/lp/bin/foomatic-rip \
/opt/sfw/cups/bin/.
# ln -s /usr/lib/lp/model/ppd \
/opt/sfw/cups/share/cups/model/.
the second link tells it where to find all the ppd
file that are known by the system.
