Even though I did not have CUPS_OVERWRITE_BASE=YES in /etc/make.conf when installing cups, I renamed the system's lp* tools so those of CUPS are being used: % which lpq lpr lprm lp /usr/local/bin/lpq /usr/local/bin/lpr /usr/local/bin/lprm /usr/local/bin/lp The system's tools are out of scope now. % ls /usr/bin/lp* /usr/bin/lp.bsd /usr/bin/lpq.bsd /usr/bin/lpr.bsd /usr/bin/lprm.bsd As I made sure from various programs, CUPS _can_ actually print.
