I normally do install printers using hp-setup.  But I uses cups (web
interface) to first delete all the queues and also find the cups web
interface useful for printing.

What is the hp- command to "start over", e.g. remove all existing
queues?

I feel there must be something very wrong here.

thanks,
allan
