I have a postscript printer which was installed using CUPS via the KDE printer wizard. The printer works fine when printing from X apps, but I am unable to print from the command line. My main concern is to be able to print from Mutt, but when I try to do that I get an error message from Mutt telling me,"lpr: lp: unknown printer." I would appreciate being pointed in the right direction here. Rem
