I saw that, but when I changed it and restarted cups, cups rewrote it. printcap: # This file was automatically generated by cupsd(8) from the # /etc/cups/printers.conf file. All changes to this file # will be lost. EPSON|EPSON:rm=frodo.localhost:rp=EPSON: /etc/cups/printers.conf: # Printer configuration file for CUPS v1.1.23 # Written by cupsd on Sat 24 Dec 2005 09:35:50 PM MST Info Location DeviceURI ipp://192.168.1.100/USB1 State Idle Accepting Yes JobSheets none none QuotaPeriod 0 PageLimit 0 KLimit 0 How it got frodo.localhost out of what is in the /etc/cups/printer.conf file I cannot figure out.
