I have very few experience with CUPS (prefer apsfilter or PS), but as far as I understood, the printcap file is altered every time a printer is changed. So when you remove the existing printer and create it again, all files should be regenerated, both the /etc/printcap file as well as the files in the /usr/local/etc/cups subtree. Deleting and recreating still sounds like the "Windows" way of doing things, but due to my impression that CUPS is designed in a way that it appeals this special kind of users' expectations, this may be the only way to achieve your goal. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Help with CUPS reconfiguration
I am trying to reconfigure a bunch of machine to acomodate new domain names. One of these machines is a fairly old FreeBSD machine (6.3). We have done a search through all the files of these machines looking for references to the old domain name. One of these is in /etc/printcap/ /etc/printcap has a comment in it that says it is auto generated by cops. It refers to /usr/local/etc/cups/printers.conf as the source file. However, this file does not have a reference to the old domain. My guess is that this is picked up automatically from the machine name, when it is built. Therein lies the issue. I cant connect remotely port 631 on this machine as the certificate is no longer valid, as the domain has changed. When I go to the machine an try to connect to localhost:631, it gets connected, but no combination of username password works. How can I force cups to reconfigure? -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting.

Help with CUPS and Samsung ML-1710
Hello, I've been trying to get my Samsung ML-1710 running under FreeBSD with CUPS. Installation of everything seems to have gone o.k., but I can't print a test page. I looked in the log file and got: D [22/Sep/2004:12:50:55 -0400] start_process("/usr/local/libexec/cups/backend/us b", 0xbfbf0330, 0xbfbef6a0, 12, 13, 11) I [22/Sep/2004:12:50:55 -0400] Started backend /usr/local/libexec/cups/backend/u sb (PID 242) for job 5.

Yes, the log file pointed out the problem. Ghostscript wasn't installed as a dependency when I installed cups from ports. Thanks for the knock on the head, Rob.
