CUPS is rather standard these days for *nix desktop users and all to print to devices. I personally think that it fits perfectly into the Handbook, which describes common things that one can do with a FreeBSD installation. Having CUPS installation et all in a a different article makes it prone to get lost in time. Personally I do not recall the discussion at all; please doc@ discuss this so that we can reach a global consensus regarding this topic, ofcourse I will hook up with the majority if they think this should indeed be an article. Thanks, Remko -- Kind regards, Remko Lodder ** remko@elvandar.org FreeBSD ** remko@FreeBSD.org /* Quis custodiet ipsos custodes */
