No, because I used the KDE control panel to configure it.

I'm looking for instructions to configure Cups on a system where the
only 'configuration' tools available are commandline tools; a web
browser isn't out of the question, but won't be possible in some of the
circumstances I forsee having to install under.

FWIW, I found rickfrm's "CUPS Configuration Tips in Slackware" webpage
(which has an example cups.conf file), and the "Slackware Linux Basics:
For Slackware Linux 10.0 - Printer Configuration" page at
linuxpackages.net. While rickfrm's page is helpfull, it's a bit sparse
for my liking. And, the linuxpackages documentation just recommends
using a web browser (again, not possible in my circumstances).

So, I ask again, can anyone here point me at a _simple_ CUPS
configuration howto document? Something aimed at _hand-configuration_ of
CUPS, but without the volume of the CUPS Software Administrators Manual?
