This does not only apply to client applications, but also to computers configured as CUPS clients (debian's default): You only set-up and configure a printer on one server for a whole network. With a default debian installation, the clients on the network will discover the printer automatically and 'just work'. I have never used lprng so I don't know, if it has a similar feature. - -- Johannes Three nations have not officially adopted the International System of Units as their primary or sole system of measurement: Burma, Liberia, and the United States. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Si_units -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAksehQUACgkQC1NzPRl9qEWq7gCcCNojtjnZpG4lbRS9Q0bR721k McMAn3zLcqK/SA8l3yngfhUzbeoobLub =9deL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
