Will it auto-terminate too? It annoys me greatly that, even though I
only very rarely print to a LaserJet with a JetDirect card, I have to
have a demon running all the time. I don't need to share the printer, it
does that just fine by itself.

It's also obnoxious and redundant that every machine on my LAN seems to
insist on offering the *same* printer to every other machine no matter
how much I try and tell it not to...

(Is it possible to get a JetDirect card to do the CUPS browsing thing?
Its one of the newer ones that do IPP natively, but as of the last time
I flash upgraded it, it showed no sign of support for browsing...)
