Yes, I would add words of caution to using CUPS as well. I fought with that piece of crap for 4 hours last weekend and it had so much trouble printing from Mutt or any other textbased application that I almost pulled my hair out. It printed OK in X, but still destroyed margins and other such things. I have an HP600C which prints perfectly using lprng and so that is what I went back to. I have found the console apps and X apps print much better with this option. CUPS is a good idea, but until it's matured a bit. I would stay away from it.
Is CUPS in the Suse 7.1 distribution? If it is I hope it's not the default in the printer setup. If this is the case Suse will be creating a lot of unhappy users with print problems. John -- Contentment is not the fulfillment of what you want, but the realization of how much you already have.
