Hi David; > Do you have 'HPLIP' in your system to run the HP PSC1315,if not try it > as its the default print programme for HP in fedora > > david No I don't have HPLIP. I'll download it tomorrow. One of my problems was that CUPS had the HP psc 1300 driver. I applied the psc 1310 driver and everything (except duplexing) was working again. I don't know what happened there. I had a burp while I was updating CUPS this afternoon, or I could have inveterately changed the driver while I was playing around. In any case, I have had enough for today. Sourceforge.net has instructions for installing HPLIP in fedora core 4. I'll use them. Thanks for your trouble. Regards Bill
