Hi,
after installing matlab on debian lenny (5.0.2) with cups 1.3.8 I had problems
to print directly from matlab. The mathworks people told me to add the line
Option orientation-requested 3
to /etc/cups/printers.conf for each defined printer and to restart cups. I did
this manually using a editor.
In short - it works. But now I'm looking for a solution to add this line in a
'compatible' way for example with - for example - lpadmin.
Background: I have a small solution with some shell scripts to backup, maintain
and - if necessary - (re)create a complete cups server using this scripts.
I looked into the man pages of various cups commands but found nothing how to
handle this problem.
Any Ideas?
TIA, Christian
