Harry. I hope I can help you. After you switch from LPRng to CUPS, then
you need to stop lpd and start cupsd
I'm looking in the excellent book, "Red Hat Linux 7.3 Bible" (the new
version for Psyche is enroute from Miami to Colombia tonight).
(1) Put this URL in your web browser: http://localhost:631/admin
give root as your login name and the root password
(2) click Add Printer button. (3) Provide name of printer, location,
description and "Continue"
(3) Select the port your printer is on (probably Parallel Port 1 or
Serial Port 1)
(4) Select the manufacturer, model, print a test page.
In the case of our HP LaserJet 6L, there were several Driver options to
choose from. The first one (?) I selected printed a beautiful test page.
HTH, Lanny
