Existing users, 
I thought, being the geek that I am, that I would install a non Apple version of CUPS. All was fine until it all went horribly wrong and I had to re-install my whole OS because printing was totally screwed and no demedies would help.
These installers are very good, it all works well (until it doesnt work at all) but unless you have a specific need to install this there is really no point!

Did you run Print Setup Repair application and replace the cupsd.config file with a new one and start cups after installing this. If not, then your printer won't work. I guess you're not that much of a geek.Sunday, November 25 2007 @ 09:40 AM PST

You're right. CUPS is so complex and convoluted (well, all printing is) that unless there is something truly MUST HAVE, I can't see any value to updating this w/ non-Apple supplied s/w.Reply to This
