Under "Basic Configuration," the cupsd.conf file is listed as /etc/cupsd/cupsd.conf. However, mine is located at /etc/cups/cupsd.conf.

I also have the file /etc/cups/cupsd.conf, and I have a brand new install. I changed it for now. --Exdaix 18:44, 16 Nov 2004 (GMT)

[edit] USE="ppds" emerge foomatic

i think i needed to emerge also "foomatic" with ppds turned on (guessed it will need that). so i recommend to add

USE="ppds" emerge foomatic


to the cups section of the howto

- Dilandau

As far as I understand the device name may be deduced from dmesg:

[edit] Detecting which device

I think the device name can be deduced from dmesg (see the last line):

In my case it was /dev/sda1.
