Debian 3.0
Debian offers a choice between plain LPD, LPRng and CUPS. There are
several printer configuration tools in this distribution, e.g. the
apsfilter (version 5 or later), which adds support for LPRng and
Ghostscript's uniprint driver scheme. Red Hat's printtool is also
supported, for those who prefer GUI administration tools.
For LPRng, LPD and CUPS use the Printtool.
