I agree. It is also important to mention the graphical tools as well. @Alfred Thanks for stopping by and I am glad that the site has helped you. Ask me anything if you are having trouble. If I don't know the answer, maybe I can find out. @Wray Did you try to go to "System -> Administration -> Printing" and clicking on the "New Printer" button ? If you open that , many times the printer is detected Automagically. If not, then you may have to set it up manually by choosing "App Socket", "ipp", or "LPD" since those are the common methods for IP printing. What kind of print server is it? @nongeek

I'm one in need of slow and patient help. Even though my daily coffee cup has RTFM written in huge letters across it, that procedure has not worked tonight as I'm getting frustrated trying to get a network (cheap print server) printer working in 7.10 that 7.04 installed so fast by itself that I did not see what it did. No, I haven't got Ubuntu figured out yet so I'm headed for the Community now!! Thanks for spreading this word! I’m one in need of slow and patient help.

Doing this way you're helping to dispel the "Linux is too difficult" myth whilst still giving enough information for those eager to learn Another one is to mention both command line and graphical tools (or front ends).
