I tried to add a printer using lpadmin -p Matrix -i parallel:/dev/lp0 -P /root/matrix.ppd. I want to use CUPS and foomatic, as suggested by Ian Ward in a Mini-HOWTO he published in 2002. Thus the syntax and options used with lpadmin. I failed to do so successfully--the error message was add-printer failed client-error-not-found.
Matrix.ppd is the Windows printer driver renamed to match the Linux format. I'm confused about using both -i and -P with lpadmin, since man lpadmin states -P overrides -i. Any help would be appreciated.
