Hello, Today I tried to print something on my Brother printer which used to work fine when I was running FC3, but today, narda, nothing. It doesn't want to print anything. I tried to print a test page as root, but again, it doesn't want. This is what I find in the /var/log/cups/error_log file : >=================================================== I [22/May/2006:14:53:31 +0200] Saving remote.cache...
