HI david! My first guess, the printer is off (or out of toner / paper ), is "disconnected" to you if it is network (any kind of connectivity problem will do this) or if connected by cord, the cord is not connected to the selected printer port. See links: # Note troubleshooting at bottom - with neat link to your local cups web interface http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/Cups # The CUPS site! http://www.cups.org/ # If you are really despirate see chapter IIV: http://www.linuxprinting.org/kpfeifle/LinuxKongress2002/Tutorial/VII.cups-help/VII.cups-help.pdf Good Hunting!
