Hi Guys,

Putting together a script here to add a set of printer to multiple machines.

I've gone off and created the correct .ppd file, verified it worked. Problem I am having is, everytime I run this command

lpadmin -p printername -E -v socket://printername:9100 -p /path/to/ppd

It imports to the ppd to /etc/cups/ppd

But when I check how the printer is setup in system-config-printers, it is set to raw print queue and it will not print to said printer.

Any ideas?
