Hi,

I use cupsd in my browser "http://localhost:631/admin" to add printers and
I think the pull-down options are too limited:

- the Device section has no smb-windows protocol in the list.

- the 'Make' listing is very short, only "EPSON, HP, OKIDATA".

- the 'Model' listing is also extremely short, only "HP Deskjet series, HP Laserjet series"
  for HP.

On another Linux box I use cups 1.1.7, which has many more choices.

Would it be better to provide a more updated version of cups with current FBSD?

Regards,
Rob.
