Default Problem with cupsd/printing

Hello everyone,

I have set up printing under gentoo as described at
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/printing-howto.xml.

The howto works nice and I can print and everything is fine - however
sometimes my installed printer is stopped after booting (the printer
itself, not cupsd). So in this case I manually have to go to control
center, attached devices, printer, select my printer and click on "Start
printer" in its context menu. This is very annoying, especially because my
gentoo-box is also used by newbies, who can not remember this and always
contact me about it.

Can anyone enlighten me why this happens and is there a chance I can turn
this off? I want the printer to be always started.

Thanks in advance
Rainer Sinsch
