I propose a much needed article on using cups from the command line.?
This article, fully written and used by myself will automate the
process of adding printers to any desktop or server just by running a
script file.? It will teach you lpadmin, lpstat, how to setup and
install drivers for printers and how to automate the process.
I find
this useful on client sites (who love linux of course) to automate
installing printers.? I find the graphic tools way too time consuming.
Location is up to you.? Here is the article.
*** NOTE:
The
article does NOT include information on the cups.conf file for sharing
printers because I feel that's way too much information and loses the
focus of what I'm trying to do.

Can I somehow send it to you.? Sadly I don't have it tied to a web server.?
I guess I should at some point.? I have a domain but never bothered setting it
up.

I propose a much needed article on using cups from the command line.?
This article, fully written and used by myself will automate the

install drivers for printers and how to automate the process.
I find

Location is up to you.? Here is the article.
*** NOTE:
The
article does NOT include information on the cups.conf file for sharing
printers because I feel that's way too much information and loses the
focus of what I'm trying to do.

The sandbox is where you can experiment with content layout, editing commands, etc. This is also a good place for the community to review and proof the article prior to publication on the wiki. gd [1] http://wiki.centos.org/WikiSandBox

This list has (as you should have learned by now) a size restriction. Your attached word document makes your post too big. Ralph
