[project cancelled] help for my init script if possible

Juanito:
confirmed - the only file required for the cups client connection to the cups server printer to persist across reboot is /usr/local/etc/cups/printers.conf

After reboot, neither avahi nor cups-browsed are required.

It does however seem that the auto-generated printers.conf is required - it would not work when I manually created a printer using ipp://192.168.1.200:631/printers/HPOfficeJetG85, perhaps due to the uuid below.

The automatic created printers.conf on the pc with TCL (not working hp printer) is

(pdf printer works). I will now disable cups-browsed and avahi and see what is the effect.

Here the working printers.conf file of the working notebook (ubuntu 12.04)

I will have a look at the differences, disable cups-browsed and search further.

Juanito:
Do you mean something that will print a pdf file or something that will convert a file to pdf (if so, what are you using)?

netnomad:
hi floppy,

i agree that your example works fine until 4.7.7:

--- Quote ---a pdf CUPS printer (in order to convert text or openoffice files to PDF).
Like mine (see above)

--- End quote ---

did you also succeed in 5.x?

i noticed missing dependencies like cups-pdf.tcz or ghostscript_common.tcz!

thank you for sharing your experiences.
