We discovered the same thing with the betas.  On RHEL/CentOS 5 we're
using lpadmin to create queues from the command line.

Does anyone know of a command line tool for printer configuration for CentOS 5.

I have used  "printconf-tui --Xexport > printers.xml" to copy my
printer setup in CentOS 4.x
(then Ximport to bring it back), but this no longer works in CentOS 5 and I
would really
like to retain this functionality.

Can I re-install this tool or will it not work with the new CUPS?

Is there an alternative?

Do I have to re-configure all my printers by hand and discard my printers.xml
files?

Any help will be appreciated.
