The cups page say cups is released under the GPL. Cups has support for ipp and lpd builtin and provides security for printing. I don't understand your grips? You have a binary print server that requires LPRng, you mean it won't work with the standard cups LPD support? Sounds like the owner of the binary print server is the one who should release his source code. I like cups;) jay
