If I cannot fix this printing problem, I will have to abandon Linux for the hated world of Windoze!!! Two weeks ago, I no longer could send a document to either printer. I've got two printers connected, both of which used to work fine. One is a Canon S600 connected to a USB port. The other is a HP LJ 6MP connected through my local network. Both worked fine previously. Whenever I try to print from a program (e.g., Firefox), the only printer available is the PostScript default. Previously, both printers were listed, with the HP as the default printer. When I try to print a test page, I get this error: lpr: error - unable to print file: server-error-service-unavailable I'm running Core 3, and have done all of the updates. I downloaded and installed the latest version of CUPS (1.1.22). That did not help.

Joe OK lets start with the basics, is the cups daemon running? Set to start at startup? ps -ef | grep cups /sbin/chkconfig --list cups If you do indeed see a cupsd in the output of the ps command, and runlevels 2345 are set to on the chkconfig output. Then run system-config-printers and make sure that your printers are configured correctly. Delete them and reconfigure if required. Test print from the printer config.
