Wemin IS cool

[Michael Scully]

Ed:

	I didn't mean proprietary in that sense.  I should have probably
said "non-standard", at least prior to the use of CUPS.

	All the new Enterprise 3 installs are using CUPS.  My older sites
have the lprng daemon.

	Thanks to all for the info.  I'll look at the CUPS configuration
files.

Proprietary - no!  Red Hat ships multiple printing subsystems (lpd and
cups) and both are open source.  Nothing propietary about them.

For cups, it's in /etc/cups.  Here's my config file for my simple 1
printer setup on my RHEL 3 system:

[root at p6000 cups]# cat /etc/cups/printers.conf
# Printer configuration file for CUPS v1.1.17

Which printing subsystem are you using?
