On #1, Where the printer is and I am now, I see almost identical entries : ==== ===== ===== ===== Search in Printers: Clear Showing 2 of 2 printers.

And on the others, assuming identical entries, the opposite? I'll either do that, or post additional replies if I find any surprises. (The troubleshooter did install a driver on at least one machine; and there are at least two reports on each machine.) -- Beartooth Staffwright, PhD, Neo-Redneck Linux Convert Remember I know precious little of what I am talking about. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
