After I "fixed" a ppd file the cups error log complained about, I got no printing at all: lpc> status PSC_1500_series: printer is on device 'hal' speed -1 queuing is enabled printing is enabled 2 entries daemon present This is after I restarted cups and power-cycled my printer. A friend suggested rebooting. I did that and both a2ps and gv printed postscript code. Power-cycling my printer didn't change anything. Isn't magic wonderful? I forget what I've done lately, but I'm back to no printing at all. When I tried to print a test page, cups told me that the printer wasn't connected. Cups is a liar. I checked. -- Mike hennebry@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx "Horse guts never lie." -- Cherek Bear-Shoulders -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
