Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where
appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
I tried to print an file with the lp command * What exactly did you
do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)?
I tried the command:
lp -d DESTINATION -h HOSTNAME FILENAME * What was the outcome of
this action?
An error: lp: Error - The printer or class does not exist.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
printing of the file.
When I print with:
lp -h HOSTNAME -d DESTINATION FILENAME
everything works ok, I'm sure cups-client on BUSTER did not care about
the placement of the host parameter. The man-page also reports
lp [ -E ] [ -U username ] [ -c ] [ -d
destination[/instance] ] [ -h host‐name[:port] ]
with the destination before the host-name
