After the update, I can no longer get anything to print. I'm starting to wonder if my printer has folded its tent, and the cups update was just a coincidence. I downloaded cups-1.3.5-3.fc8.x86_64.rpm, cups-libs-1.3.5-3.fc8.i386.rpm, cups-devel-1.3.5-3.fc8.x86_64.rpm and cups-libs-1.3.5-3.fc8.x86_64.rpm and did "rpm -Uvh --oldpackage cups*" and that printer is still not doing anything. My HP colour laser printer on another computer with F8 and the latest cups update is still printing properly, so it might just be that my old Samsung has died. I suppose I shall have to run to the computer store tomorrow and purchase another printer.... -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com
