Hi,
(Please excuse my overly complicated message)
I just bought a usb laser printer (Lexmark E232). After some hours of digging,
I ended up having it working with cups+foomatic under a Laserjet 4 driver in

Hi Dr. Hazelton, CUPS is one of over 10,000 optional ports for
FreeBSD, and you are correct in assuming that it is not always tested
