Interesting about the ppds flag. I have ppds in make.comf so I'm going to get that unless I make a change. Independent of what someone said is depreciated, what is chosen by default if nothing is specifically asked for? There have been a number of times in the past where someone changes a flag and it works for most but not all. I'll investigate cupsddk here over the next week or two. Thanks. I don't know what else to suggest. For me this has been pretty much a non-issue. It just works. There is a setting on the server side, available through the cups configuration stuff at http://server_address:631 which tells cups to publish the server. - Mark
