I've used CUPS many times in the past, and use it on my own workstation
at home.  Yes, I've used it's web interface firsthand.  I don't give
absolutes unless I know they work, because a lot of what you find on the
Internet is bullshit unless you try and test it.

And I'm assuming you're not the type that builds your software from
source.  *shrugs*  I guess it's up to you whether or not you want your
packagers to decide how everything works for you, isn't it?

When I talk about software configurations, I talk from experience,
unless otherwise noted.
