When I filled the bug the system didn't set up a new queue for the printer when it was powered on *and* the old system-config-printer queue didn't work anymore because somehow the printer device was changing and/or cups didn't believe the printer was available again without doing strong vodoo in system-config-printer. Now the system can set up a new hal queue *and* the old manual one is still working without major user intervention. So I use the manual queue. I must admit I didn't try the hal queue lately (synonymous with wasted paper so far) but last time I did every time I powered up the printer HAL recreated a "default" queue for the model and forgot all my old paper/dpi/economode/driver choices (this is a printer that can do both PCL & PS, foomatic suggests PCL because a sister model can only do PCL and the foomatic authors are afraid of user errors, but PS print quality is much better) > Please file a new bug or reassign the current bug > to the hal-cups-config module with the precise steps you take to print a > document. Thanks. Will try to do it next saturday. Don't have time to do a clean job before. Cheers, -- Nicolas Mailhot
