HTH You are very lucky. CUPS is great when it is working. When it is not working it is a nightmare. The Fedora tools (like system-config-printer) don't work properly, and the CUPS documentation was written by cyborgs. Incidentally, you didn't mention /etc/cups/printers.conf . I have the line DeviceURI ipp://alfred:631/printers/lj in printers.conf on my laptop. (My desktop, to which the printer is attached, is called "alfred".) -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
