<title>CUPS Configuration</title>

<para>Configuration of CUPS is dependent on the type of printer and can be complex.  
Generally, postscript printers are easier.  For detailed instructions on 
configuration and use of CUPS, see <ulink url="http://www.cups.org/documentation.php"/>.
The Software Administrators Manual and Software Users Manual are particularly
useful.</para>

<para>During the install, cups created the startup file 
<filename>/etc/rc.d/init.d/cups</filename>.
The file works, but you may want to change it to a more 
conventional LFS startup file:</para>

<para><screen><userinput>cat &gt; /etc/rc.d/init.d/cups &lt;&lt; "EOF"

#!/bin/sh
# Begin $rc_base/init.d/cups

# Start or stop the CUPS server based upon the first argument to the script.

source /etc/sysconfig/rc
source $rc_functions

case $1 in
    start)
           echo "Starting CUPS Printserver..."
           loadproc /usr/sbin/cupsd
           ;;
    stop)
           echo "Stopping CUPS Printserver..."
           killproc cupsd
           ;;

    reload)
           echo "Reloading CUPS Printserver..."
           reloadproc /usr/sbin/cupsd
           ;;

    restart)
           $0 stop
           sleep 1
           $0 start
           ;;

    status)
           statusproc cupsd
           ;;

    *)
           echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop|reload|restart|status}"
           exit 1
           ;;
esac

# End $rc_base/init.d/cups startup script.
EOF</userinput></screen></para>

<para>The CUPS install also copies the initialization script to the 
<filename>/etc/rc.d/rc{0,2,3,5}</filename> directories.  You may want 
to delete those files and add symbolic links to 
<filename>/etc/rc.d/init.d/cups</filename>.</para>
