You're better off using the GUI, the CUPS web UI, or lpadmin: http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man8/lpadmin.8.html or building a package that installs the printer via a script, then push it out to users via your change control system: http://code.google.com/p/munki/wiki/ManagingPrintersWithMunki All of these methods are less likely to result in your changes being overwritten by OS updates. - Zack -- Zack Williams - Artisan Computer Services - 520.867.8701 z...@artisancomputer.com http://www.artisancomputer.com Apple Certified System Administrator, Apple Consultants Network Microsoft Certified Professional, Small Business Specialist Sun Certified System Administrator Linux Professional Institute LPIC-1 _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list Tech@lists.lopsa.org https://lists.lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
