I have not tried cups on redhat yet either but i to give it a shot this weekend. i will let you know how it goes.

[vhg119]

i already downloaded cups and compiled it.
It gave me several packages which i then installed.
i started the daemon and tried to configure it via my browser. There doesnt seem to be a wide range of drivers.. especially for my lexmark: there are none.
Are there other packages i need besides cups?
cups-drivers? i heard of something called cupsomatic.. do i need those too?

ok.. i got it working now

Well dont leave us in suspense, how did you get it working, it might be helpful to someone else who is trying to install cups.
