conflict with that of KPrinter and that printing options are only changed through
KPrinter after it has been enabled.
23.7 Printing from the Command Line
To print from the command line, enter lp -d queuename filename, substituting
the corresponding names for queuename and filename.
Some applications rely on the lp command for printing. In this case, enter the correct
command in the application's print dialog, usually without specifying filename, for
example, lp -d queuename.
23.8 Special Features in SUSE Linux
Enterprise
A number of CUPS features have been adapted for SUSE Linux Enterprise. Some of
the most important changes are covered here.
23.8.1 CUPS Server and Firewall
There are several ways to configure CUPS as the client of a network server.
1. For every queue on the network server, you can configure a local queue through
which to forward all jobs to the corresponding network server (forwarding queue).
Usually this approach is not recommended, because all client machines must be
reconfigured whenever the configuration of the network server changes.
2. Print jobs can also be forwarded directly to one network server. For this type of
configuration, do not run a local CUPS daemon. lp or corresponding library calls
of other programs can send jobs directly to the network server. However, this
configuration does not work if you also want to print on a local printer.
3. The CUPS daemon can listen to IPP broadcast packets that other network servers
send to announce available queues.
