[cups] A primer on CUPS and printers

[Johnnie W Adams]

Hi, folks,

     I spent the first ten years of my time as a UNIX/Linux admin working
with very large systems that didn't use printers.

     Now I do manage printers, and am finding it much rougher going than i
had expected. I'm right now working on moving CUPS and a couple hundred
printers from a very old version of Linux to a new one. (RHEL 5 to RHEL 7,
and no, it was not my idea to let that old RHEL 5 machine live this long.)
I get the pieces, but I don't yet have an overview of what I'm doing.

     Can someone recommend a primer or a reading path through the CUPS
documentation?

Thanks,

     John A
