I hadn't a printer configured on an F11 system. I've got the following bits.... F11 at 192.168.40.129 HP PSC 2510 at 192.168.0.10 I can ping the HP from the F11. On the F11 brought up FF and went to http://localhost:631 and went through the dialog to add a printer. I then printed a test page and then printed a page from FF and then printed a page from TBird. Got all of this going in less than 5 minutes, I think.... FWIW, my client.conf file is totally empty. Not even sure what that is used for...maybe I'll check it out. -- If you have never been hated by your child, you have never been a parent. -- Bette Davis Guess Who! http://tinyurl.com/mc4xe7
