having just discovered both cups and pdq i would recommend one of them. pdq (and the x client xpdq) is a very very simple print system. it requires no printcap, no queues and xpdq has a a wizard to help you setup new printers. there are of course debian packages :) cups is nicer but considerably more complicated (though you still don't have to deal with /etc/printcap). with cups you get qtcups (a slick qt window which you use as the print command which pops up a window like the windows print properties box). you can also get kups which is a kde gui to add/remove/configure printers and the queue (you don't have to be running kde to use it). there are debian packgaes for all this as well. adam.
