Thanks for the reply Gary. However, this is not a printer issue, it is an FC6 issue (at least it seems to so me). The printer was working fine under FC5, and then when I upgraded, things went awry. Can anybody help me debug my problem with cups under FC6? I'll share any config / log files that may help. Thanks!

I "think" there are some missing ppd issues. ( I'm not using fc6) - but have solved the problem ( with different distros ) by going to:<a href="http://hplip.sourceforge.net/supported_devices/combined.html">http://hplip.sourceforge.net/supported_devices/combined.html</a> ----------gary -- fedora-list mailing list <a href="mailto:fedora-list@redhat.com"> fedora-list@redhat.com</a> To unsubscribe: <a href="https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list">https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list</a> </blockquote></div>
