Howto: Airprint on linux w/iOS5 GM

[TLewis]

(OK, I realize that this may only help like 2 other people here, but I'm posting this to get it into the archives. )

Since windows Airprint doesn't work with iOS5, I looked for and found a nice linux solution. I can again print from my iPad. Yay!

Instructions:

1. Install and configure CUPS, if necessary. Get CUPS working with your printer(s).
2. Install avahi, if necessary (this is the Bonjour services daemon).
3. Follow the directions here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/26130/how-can-share-my-printer-so-that-i-can-use-it-with-airprint

(Seems easy, but it took me forever to find an avahi services description that would actually work.) I'm using this with Ubuntu 10.10, but it "should" also work with 11.04 and 11.10.
