Might just be me, but I hate CUPS. Try foomatic-rip together with
the appropriate PPD and set up your /etc/printcap. Here's mine for
a hp LaserJet 1010
$ cat /etc/printcap
lp|LaserJet:\
:lp=/dev/ulpt0:\
:af=/etc/foomatic/HP-LaserJet_1010-hpijs.ppd:\
:if=/usr/local/bin/foomatic-rip:\
:sd=/var/spool/output:\
:lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:\
:sh:
Just my 0.2 EUR.
