(Just as a note: Try to reply to the mailing list so everyone sees the
discussion thread)
Ubuntu includes lpr and cups by default, and lpr is included with the
ubuntu-minimal package. cups is really the only useful printing
subsystem anymore, since it can handle postscript and pretty much every
*NIX program can interface with it because its API is so easy.
Also there's no way to graphically configure lpr, and there's a
graphical configuration tool for cups (system-config-printer-gnome/kde).
I'll see about getting the option in there.

Well options dont hurt. and what use is a system if it cant print
easily. yes i know there are other print installs but does MDU strip
all of those?

Hey all,
This is an issue that's been nagging me for quite some time now.
Should we include CUPS (the printing subsystem) on MDU, make it an
option, or keep it removed?
