printing

[Ken Gillett <ken ukgb net>]

A very simple question about printing, which is one thing I've never 
had to set up before.

I want to offer print services to Windows and Mac (OSX) clients to a RH 
8 server. Mainly I want to share an HP DeskJet 690c and I'm having 
trouble figuring out the best method. I'm running SAMBA and Netatalk 
and there's always LPR. But should I run CUPS and how does that 
integrate into SAMBA and Netatalk?

I'm connecting the Deskjet via a parallel to USB converter and it seems 
to be being seen, so it's a question of drivers. Will the recommended 
HPIJS handle such a USB-parallel conversion?

Any understandable HOWTOs recommended?
