Thanks Alexander--so far nothing seems to help. Going to the CUPS utility at http://localhost:631 and playing with different settings has now produced a different error message "192.168.1.150 is busy: will retry in 30 second . . ." I hope that's progress.

I run a PS110 myself - without a major problem. Alexander
