After installing it on the hd I tried to add a printer via the webbased interfase of cups (localhost:631) but when comming to the drivers page there seem to be listed just a few. Although in kde all seems to be ok. I then tried the same thing of the live cd. and the problem repeats itself. This does not seem to happen  in gnoppix or kanotix. So is this a bug or there a feature missing? Am I doing someting wrong? Is cups not wrong configured?

See http://am.xs4all.nl/phpwiki/index.php/MorphixHdFaqUsing in the 
printer section.

But in any case, we need know how to add postscripts drivers (PPD) files 
to the CUPS webserver ( or perhaps create another more free webserver 
with a button "Add a new driver" ??.

In any case, we need to know how to easily add more drivers manually to 
CUPS.
