    All of this is in earlier messages. But for you I will do it again. 
 From /var/log/yum I got the files but I am back on fc6 now. The printer 
is a Brother laser printer model HL-1440. It has worked fine on f7 until 
the gui printer setup software was updated. Now it will not work.

    It is a great mystery and I for one are hopeless :-(

But I can't use a computer that can't print. So I have a fix that is fc6 
:-)
