G'day ardaniel,

I didn't have Net::CUPS installed either; attempting to install resulted in the same error you've reported.

I don't actually want that module; however, here's the procedure to follow for this, and other modules, which require 3rd-party resources.

1. Go to the CPAN page for the module: Net::CUPS
2. At the top of the page you'll see
   "{author-link} / {distribution-link} / {module-name}".
   In this instance, {distribution-link} is Net-CUPS-0.64; follow that link.
3. You're now at the distribution page. You'll see a number of links to various files: you're looking for either INSTALL or README. If both are present, you may need to read both of them. In this case, there's no INSTALL; so follow the README link.
4. About halfway down you'll see DEPENDENCIES. This is a common section in README files with information about libraries, and so on, you may need to install. For Net::CUPS, it's pointing you to http://www.cups.org.
5. You'll need to find downloads appropriate for your operating system. In general, aim to get the most recent. Not knowing what OS you're using; I'll leave you to work out the rest yourself.
