We are migrating a server from HPUX 11 to Redhat 2.1 ES. (We can not use 3.0 due to library incompatibilities). We have most issues resolved with the exception of printing. We print to various HP 8100 laser printers via IP through JetDirect interfaces. When we print through CUPS on 3.0 or through our HPUX system we are able to pass various options to the printer using the -o switch. Printing through 2.1 is ignoring these switches.
I am probably missing some simple configuration here, can some suggest how to get these options working or a version of CUPS that functions with 2.1?
Personally, I'd take the easy way out and download the RHEL 3 source rpm for cups and rebuild it on 2.1. The downside, of course, is that you'd have to maintain CUPS yourself for updates, but you may find it easier than trying to force 2.1 to work for you.
