<PRE>On Tuesday 16 Oct 2012 14:08 my mailbox was graced by a message from Renaud 
(Ron) Olgiati who wrote:
&gt;<i> I have been looking into adding a &quot;Print to fax&quot; entry in my printing
</I>&gt;<i> system,  using fax and efax.
</I>&gt;<i> The man page for efax tells me how to create the virtual printer by adding
</I>&gt;<i> a  line in /etc/printcap.
</I>&gt;<i> But the first lines in printcap read:
</I>&gt;<i>         # This file was automatically generated by cupsd(8) from the
</I>&gt;<i>         # /etc/cups/printers.conf file.  All changes to this file
</I>&gt;<i>         # will be lost.
</I>&gt;<i> How do I get around this ?
</I>
According to the CUPS list,

lpadmin -p efax -L machine -D fax -E -v efax:/dev/ttyXX -m efax.ppd

will do it.
 
Cheers,
 
Ron.
