I am setting up printing with SL. I had the setting "Printer" set as
lp -PhpljIII because our printer is called hpljIII. Well, that doesn't work so well with CUPS. -P is _page-list_ for CUPS, and we didn't want to print just the pages hpljIII, whatever that means. :-) so, we used -d hpljIII instead, because -d is for _destination_. Then, we got an error from the web page, "Internal Server Error", even though the printout worked fine. The problem was that good ol' CUPS wasn't just doing its' thing and being quiet about it. It likes to say things like "request id is hpljIII-75 (1 file(s))" So, we put the -s parameter in there, which is for silent-mode. All is good now. I don't know if this belongs in the FAQ or not, it certainly doesn't seem to be that F of an AQ. Maybe in the printer setup documentation or something. rob
