I used 'dpkg -i cupsys...' and the package and cupsys-client and cups-bsd were installed. How one can make a user a member of the 'lpadmin' group? Still have problem: When I use the printer from NON-root account it seems that the configuration of the printer is NOT OK. E.g. when I print some picture (region filled with gray colour) it is printed as black but from the root account it is printed OK. I use gv to print postscript files and acrobat to print pdf files. The command for printing is lp or lpr: both work in strange way described above. BUT I noticed that when I use KGhostview instead of gv to print .ps files from non-root account the picture with gray filling is printed OK. In KGhostview I can choose in print dialog window cups or lprng and so on. Of course I choose cups system. It seems that gv and acrobat are not aware of cups system in non-root account. Any clue?
