Download lpadmincern from http://ftp.riken.jp/Linux/cern/slc60beta/x86_64/updates/SRPMS/repoview/lpadmincern.html.

%CODE{"bash"}% wget http://ftp.riken.jp/Linux/cern/slc60beta/x86_64/updates/SRPMS/lpadmincern-1.3.13-1.slc6.src.rpm %ENDCODE%

Unpack the RPM.

%CODE{"bash"}% rpm2cpio lpadmincern-1.3.13-1.slc6.src.rpm | cpio -idmv tar -zxvf lpadmincern-1.3.13.tar.gz %ENDCODE%

Edit the file lpadmincern.pl such that

%CODE{"perl"}% my $cupsc='/sbin/service cups reload'; %ENDCODE%

This machine is temperamental at the moment. It appears to have a certain distaste for drawing in paper (i.e., the rollers are probably dirty), though there is a trick for making it draw in paper (see the manual for how to do this). Also, it appears to have a damaged sensor that is used for calibration (i.e., the sensor that the printer uses to measure its length is not working) that prevents the printer from completing its bootup procedure. Do not try to trick the printer into working by feeding it whiskey.
