I run an autoyast installation with SLES10. I would like to install some
cups printer. The config file configure section for the printers is:
<configure>
<printer>
server
<default>hp4050</default>
<printcap config:type="list">
<accepting config:type="boolean">true</accepting>
<bannerend>none</bannerend>
<bannerstart>none</bannerstart>
<info>ircheld</info>
<location>Y02F07</location>
<name>ircheld</name>
<raw config:type="boolean">true</raw>
<state>idle</state>
<uri>lpd://idprintserv.unizh.ch/ircheld</uri>
<accepting config:type="boolean">true</accepting>
<bannerend>none</bannerend>
<bannerstart>none</bannerstart>
<info>Pseudo Printer fuer Printkonsolen</info>
<manufacturer>HP</manufacturer>
<model> LaserJet 4050</model>
<name>hp4050</name>
<nick>HP LaserJet 4050 Foomatic/Postscript(recommended)</nick>
<key>PageSize</key>
<value>A4</value>
<raw config:type="boolean">false</raw>
<state>stopped</state>
<uri>serial:/dev/null</uri>
</printcap>
<spooler>cups</spooler>
</printer>
</configure>
The autoinstall tries to define the printers but fails with:
2006-11-09 09:59:39 <1> serv1(3828) [YCP] CUPS.ycp:256 CUPS settings
writing success: true

I have seen that during this time there is no cups server running.
What can I do to install these printers with autoyast?
Thanks
