I don't care one way or the other how it's done, as long as the guy
sitting behind me can print. I set mine up way back when and can't
recall how. I've got a handle on all the lpadmin stuff and know where
the files are and what goes in /etc/lp/printers etc, but is there an
easy way for the other guy to get his printer set up? If it's a single
command line or thirty clicks is irrelevant. He just wants to print.

Oh, it's so very ironic how I can't get no printer lovin' on Valentines
day. My wife is most definitely getting her customary heart-shaped box
of Reeses Peanut Butter cups, though. Hmmm, could I uuencode them and
send it to by e-mail?
