Do not use -E as the first option. For all CUPS commands, -E as the first argument
sets use of an encrypted connection. To enable the printer, -E must be used as shown
in the following example:
lpadmin -p ps -v parallel:/dev/lp0 -P \
/usr/share/cups/model/Postscript.ppd.gz -E
The following example configures a network printer:
lpadmin -p ps -v socket://192.168.1.0:9100/ -P \
/usr/share/cups/model/Postscript-level1.ppd.gz -E
For more options of lpadmin, see the lpadmin(1) man page.
