After I posted my question, I decided to try just copying over the /etc/cups directory of a correctly configured computer to another computer and restarting CUPS. It seems to work fine. All I need to do is run lpadmin to set the appropriate default printer for the machine. I guess I just wasn't certain if there were any other files that play a role in printer configuration. I didn't think of /etc/printcap. I guess I'll throw that one in, too. > > Hopefully someone will be disgusted enough with this answser to speak up > and tell us the correct way. ;-) > > -wolfgang > -- > Wolfgang S.
