man printconf (Commandes) - automatically configure attached USB and parallel printers

NAME

printconf - automatically configure attached USB and parallel printers

SYNOPSIS

printconf [--dry-run] [--verbose]

DESCRIPTION

This manual page briefly documents the printconf command.

printconf automatically detects and optionally configures printers attached to Linux-based systems using the Foomatic printing system.

OPTIONS

-n, --dry-run, --no-action
Detect printers, but don't actually configure them. This option is useful for testing purposes.
-v, --verbose
Show additional progress information, including notification of devices for which no autodetection data was found.

NOTES

Autodetection of parallel printers may require your computer's parallel port to be in "bidirectional," "EPP," or "ECP/EPP" mode; this is a setting in your computer's BIOS.
