For a second there , i though you were Collins.  I'm not sure what
problems you've had with CUPS (since you were rather vague), but I've
never had a single issue.  I've used it on many systems, and its
always just plain worked.  I don't' think i've touched lprNG in at
least 4 years.  Which distro is still shipping lprNG?
