The Redhat configurator doesn't seem to allow for printer aliases.

It seems that the printcap format would still allow for printer
aliases under CUPS, but I don't see how to do this with
redhat-config-printer.

So,can you actually use printer aliases under CUPS?

If so, is there a better way to do this under RedHat then trying to
manually edit the printcap file or by just defining another identical
spool using a different name?

Thanks,
Jeff
