This is weird Mike , if I open Firefox and type in 192.168.0.5, IP to printer it shows a Information page from there I can PRINT out reports of the printer from that page. But I can't print out anything like a txt doc or Print Test Page. I strongly feel that this problem has to be with Fedora 16 and the initial clean install. When I finished install I had to do a service cups start Because cups was not running . I guess I will have to do another clean install of Fedora 16. I will do that tomorrow , For now I have to go to my sisters house and help polish off the remaining Turkey from yesterdays dinner.
