That worked. Amanda also worked last night, but didn't get to print the backup report for some reason. I just tested that particular printer profile & a cups test page looks fine to me. I also set cups to share, I assume via samba, the configured printers with the rest of the local nets machines. I thought I had that enabled before, but that was before I moved the rpmnew conf file into use. However, I still cannot use the Brother Laser printer. The only error message in the cups error_log is in the middle of a bunch of success lines. Maybe this makes sense? From the error_log, modify printer, print test page (and that returns success instantly on the jobs screen) Printer is an HL2140, rpms for it from Brother are installed.

I've never before seen that, nor heard of the term. I've added the cups list, maybe Mike has some insight here. This printer has not worked since I installed Fedora Unity 8, August 2008 version, after a main drive failure. Everything but dbus is uptodate. I saw the error messages and have been holding that one back, I have enough stuff that doesn't work already. Thanks Craig, and anybody else with a clue. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
