Thanks!
Well, I know this. As I said, I'm printing to a Wondies server. This one
isn't owned by me, so renaming the printer isn't a choice.
I found something more on the CUPS documentation:
To configure CUPS for SAMBA, run the following command:
ln -s `which smbspool` /usr/lib/cups/backend/smb ENTER
I do not have samba installed. Will I need a further USE flag? Will I need to
reemerge
everything after the USE flag changes (See the empty ''Advanced'' tab in
gnome-cups-manager)?
Is this a (at least documentation) bug, which has to be filed?
