Subject: customizing lpr on a cups-based printer
Date: Tue, 30 Jan 2007 10:53:19 -0500 (EST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0701301039440.2857@localhost> (raw)

Hello,

I added a networked printer using the gnome-cups-manager but I need to 
customize the print command (specifically by adding a -U switch to lpr) 
sent to that device each time I print to it, via the application that is 
used to print.

I was wondering if there was a way to tweak the configuration for that 
device by adding/editing a cups-conf file and how to do it. All help will 
be appreciated.

Just in case its needed, I am running Ubuntu dapper with a 
2.6.15-26-server kernel and gnome 2.14.3


regards,

-K
