Setting up local USB printing with YDL was a snap, compared to doing it in 
other distros. The trouble is when you get into CUPS.  But all a user (well, 
almost every user) has to do is follow the online howto instructions, which 
basically are find your printer, fire up printtool, create a new printer, 
name it lp0, and test your printer.
