Thanks, Dale. Yours was the only response I have received so far. I'm really only replying to add some clarity. I did try deleting the printer and adding again with the same result. The HP tool won't even recognize the printer and gives me the option to go to the CUPS web interface. As far as the scanner goes, I haven't resolved that issue, but it is not a concern at this point. I *did* add myself to the scanner group. I posted that issue previously and was told that I should create a rule.
