Hi Guys,
I have a question regarding the use of
lpadmin ...
I'm trying to set-up a LOT of printers (mostly Optra T630) and
using the web-interface its quite cumbersome and time-consuming.
I'm doing something like:
lpadmin -p f116 -m optraT630.ppd -v lpd://printserver2/prn-f116
The command succeeds (I've manually added the ppd to the models
in /usr/share/cups/model/C )... however, the printer then shows up
in the webinterface as "local raw printer" even though the lpd://
part is correct. I can then go in and modify the printer in the webinterface
and actually select the correct driver from the list of Lexmarks.
What am I doing wrong, why do I have to go back into the web-interface?
TIA!
Cheers,
Andrej
