Re: PPD printer installation/uninstallation

This seems to be a bug in the StartupItem for PrintingServices. I would have thought the implementation of the shell function RestartService() would just call StopService(), followed by StartService(). Why isn't this so?

Use:

I need to do
sudo /System/Library/StartupItems/PrintingServices/PrintingServices restart
To get:
Stopping printing services

But I would expect that the system would be Restarted, not only stopped.

After the stop I run this:
sudo /System/Library/StartupItems/PrintingServices/PrintingServices restart

I get:
Starting printing services

Is it needed to run this command twice?

When I run this:
killall -HUP /usr/sbin/cupsd
I get:
No matching processes belonging to you were found

No matter if the PrintingServices is running or stopped, the matching
process is never found...

Any ideas?
