<title>Configuring <application><acronym>CUPS</acronym></application></title>
<para>Configuration of <application><acronym>CUPS</acronym></application> is
dependent on the type of printer and can be complex. Generally, PostScript
printers are easier. For detailed instructions on configuration and use of
<application><acronym>CUPS</acronym></application>, 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, <application><acronym>CUPS</acronym></application>
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 <acronym>LFS
</acronym> startup file:</para>
<screen><userinput><command>cat &gt; /etc/rc.d/init.d/cups &lt;&lt; "EOF"</command>
#!/bin/sh
# Begin $rc_base/init.d/cups
# Start or stop the CUPS server based upon the first argument to the script.
