RC2 Printing System Selection (Jean Francois)

[Moritz Heiber]

Tom,

JF already told you: If the backend isn't available you might want to
check on wether you have the development headers for cups installed. If
they are not in place xfprint cannot provide a backend connector (since
its missing the cups header files).

Its not about the daemon or anything else regarding your setup .. its
about wether those headers are there or not.

Regards,

Moritz
