I won't tell you to change to CUPS, but I will mention that I have an OS X box which very happily prints to a printer connected to a Debian box running CUPS. It required almost no setup on the OS X side (I set CUPS to poll the right host), and only slightly more on the Debian side (setting appropriate permissions for printers). Good luck finding a solution that does not involve CUPS on Debian. } Thanks very much, } Jim --Greg -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
