LPRng is removed because CUPS contains all functionality to communicate
with LPD/LPRng. To access a printer on a remote LPD/LPRng server choose
"Remote LPD" in printerdrake. You need to know the server's host name or
IP and the name of the print queue on the server. To make the local CUPS
queues available for remote LPD/LPRng clients, activate the cups-lpd
mini daemon by "chkconfig --add cups-lpd; service xinetd restart" or by
using the "Services" section in the Mandrake Control Center. For the LPD
clients your local CUPS queues have the same names under LPD as under
CUPS. The clients can send PostScript jobs which get filtered by the
CUPS server.
