A long time ago, I don't remember by whom or when, I was told to put
this in the "/etc/make.conf" file:

WITH_CUPS=YES
CUPS_OVERWRITE_BASE=YES
WITHOUT_LPR=YES

Then rebuild the system and re-install CUPS and all would be well. I
did it and it worked so I guess it was okay to do. Was that info
actually correct or did I just luck out?
