10.4: Use some PostScript level 1 printers with CUPS

Networked photocopiers are more than likely "Postscript emulation" devices, as are many laser printers. They don't use real PostScript.

10.4: Use some PostScript level 1 printers with CUPS
Authored by: byrd on Apr 06, '07 06:33:06PM
As with any printing problem, setting the log level to "debug" and HUPing CUPS will provide loads of information to help troubleshoot.
Would you be so kind as to explain how to set the log level for cups and what you mean by HUPing? Man tells me builtin commands are commands that can be executed within the running shell's process. How is this used in a practical way with CUPS. Thanks for the info, this is a problem I've faced more than once.
