+        If you use CUPS v1.2 or higher, it is recommended that you
+        also type the following command to allow the <command>cupspykota</command>
+        backend to correctly support other backends which must be run
+        as the root user (e.g. the <command>lpd</command> backend) :

         Restart CUPS so that the new backend can be detected.
