A possibility. At one point I had a similar problem after an update, for an HP printer. The HP drivers would not recognize it. I searched for the model name on the web with linux and found a linux printer project whose name I can't remember, but that had lots of alternate drivers. When I installed that it brought up the specific model and printing started working again. Might be worth a try. What about disconnecting the printer, rebooting with it disconnected so it is not found. Then shut down, reconnect the printer, and start again. It may clean out a configuration left somewhere and the hardware discovery could put in the right configuration. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
