PPD changes in Oneiric
20 Jan 2012In Cfengine3, I had been setting up printers for people using lpadmin commands. Among other things, it used a particular PPD file for the local HP printer. It turns out that in Oneiric, those files are no longer present, or even available; judging by what I found on my laptop, the PPD file is (I think) generated automagically by /usr/share/cups/ppd-updaters/hplip-cups.
It's possible that I could figure this out for my new workstation. But right now, I don't think I can be bothered. I'm going to just set this up by hand, and hope that either I'll get a print server or I'll figure it out.
