I suspect that the earlier version of my cupsd.conf contributed to the problem. Was yours an upgrade from an earlier version of Fedora or was this a clean F9 install? </pre> </blockquote> Sorry, actually F8. (though I think that's not relevant. It's the cups version that's relevant and seems to happen from 1.3.4 onwards. It was a clean F8 install. Even stranger, another box I have at work (also a clean F8 install) did what you described above, where I only had to remove that line once. If you look at the timestamp on your printers.conf, you'll see its updated whenever you print (after the job is submitted) Looking at the code, I think it might be a structure member that's not initialised and therefore whether or not this happens can be 'random'. (Didn't go into that deeply, just wanted it to work and was getting quite annoyed that I was blowing away a day just to be able to print) <blockquote cite="mid:1216907688.25414.126.camel@lin-workstation.azapple.com" type="cite"> <pre wrap=""> Craig </pre> </blockquote> </body> </html>
