At Mon, 5 Nov 2001 it looks like Sudirman Hassan composed:

s98100->Hi,
s98100->
s98100->Anybody have a working cups config for canon bjc 210sp printer?
s98100->How do you make it work? I've tried before. It just spell nonsense symbols when i
s98100->try to print.
s98100->

Hmmm, providing I did this via http://localhost:631/printers/ my
current /etc/cups/printers.conf looks like this


# Printer configuration file for CUPS v1.1.10

</Printer>

This is on probably the most troublesome OS (setup wise) and that's
Solaris-8 (Intel) and if it works first time on this OS, it should
be piece of cake on FreeBSD.

Pointing your Netscape browser to  http://localhost:631 should get
you going, you must have CUPS running though to do this.

I downloaded and installed from a tarball from the CUPS site.
