+CUPS is now installed.
+
+Please read the documentation in %%PREFIX%%/share/doc/cups/ for information
+on how to set up your printer to use CUPS. Basic template configuration files
+have been installed in %%PREFIX%%/etc/cups/
+
+To install the BSD and System V compatibility binaries look to the port
+print/cups-lpr. These are no longer installed as part of the base cups port
+because they have conflicting names with the native print binaries, and with
+other ports such as lprNG.
+
+NOTE: IF YOU USE A NON-POSTSCRIPT PRINTER:
+
+You will need to install the cups-pstoraster port in order to print to
+your printer. If you installed via the "cups" port, it will be installed
+automatically. Otherwise, you will need to install the port or the package
+yourself.
