DESCRIPTION
       Creates  device  URIs  for local and network connected printers for use
       with CUPS.


SYNOPSIS
       hp-makeuri [OPTIONS] [SERIAL NO.|USB ID|IP|DEVNODE]


SERIAL NO.|USB ID|IP|DEVNODE
       USB IDs (usb only):
              "xxx:yyy" where xxx is the USB bus ID and yyy is the USB  device
              ID.  The  ':'  and all leading zeroes must be present.  (Use the
              'lsusb' command to obtain this information. See Note 1.)

       IPs (network only):
              IPv4 address "a.b.c.d" or "hostname"

       DEVNODE (parallel only):
              "/dev/parportX", X=0,1,2,...

       SERIAL NO. (usb and parallel only):
              "serial no."


OPTIONS
       To specify the port on a multi-port JetDirect:
              -p<port> or --port=<port>  (Valid  values  are  1*,  2,  and  3.
              *default)

       Show the CUPS URI only (quiet mode):
              -c or --cups

       Show the SANE URI only (quiet mode):
              -s or --sane

       Show the HP Fax URI only (quiet mode):
              -f or --fax

       Set the logging level:
              -l<level>  or  --logging=<level>  <level>:  none,  info*, error,
              warn, debug (*default)

       Run in debug mode:
              -g (same as option: -ldebug)

       This help information:
              -h or --help


EXAMPLES
       USB:   $ hp-makeuri 001:002

       Network:
              $ hp-makeuri 66.35.250.209

       Parallel:
              $ hp-makeuri /dev/parport0

       USB or parallel (using serial number):
              $ hp-makeuri US123456789


NOTES
       1. Example using 'lsusb' to  obtain  USB  bus  ID  and  USB  device  ID
       (example only, the values you obtain will differ) :

          $ lsusb

          Bus 003 Device 011: ID 03f0:c202 Hewlett-Packard

          $ hp-makeuri 003:011

          (Note: You may have to run 'lsusb' from /sbin or  another  location.
       Use '$ locate lsusb' to determine this.)
