First of all, you only need to be concerned with 1 argument, the name of the
printer.  If you say that UA is using 2 args I believe you, but you only need
1.  Anyway, the first printer that you setup on a 3B1 must be done through UA.
If you don't, the scheduler will never start.  After you lpadmin and enable
your printer, you then do an accept.  'accept' MUST be run by the 'lp' login!!
Root won't work, install won't work, ONLY lp will work.  So login as 'root' do
an 'su - lp' and at the '$' type: /usr/lib/accept printername.  That's all
there is to it.  (actually I have 11, yup 11, logical printers for my 1
physical printer).

The ideal situation is to have real computing power close at hand - right at    home. Something that dims streetlights and shrinks the picture on the neighbors TV when you crank it up.
