Also do you mean select CUPS as the "Print System Currently Used" when I try to configure this via K>Knoppix>Configure>Configure Printer(s)? If I select CUPS then there is no option for a LPR printer on the next screen but I can select LPR as the "Print System Currently Used" but then I have no idea what to put in the Name, Description, Location, Command Settings fields.... Which is it?

Thanks for being so patient....

I use a similar standalone printer server that plugs into the back of my Lexmark Optra E+ Laser to share it on my LAN.


I am not at the machine that has this setup to pull the exact steps off, but will follow when I can get to that machine.
