Till,
Lots of CUPS problems to report with 7.2 and an HP 970Cxi printer
using the HP Deskjet 970C, Foomatic + cdj970 driver.
Worked well until I tried to print from Adobe Acrobat 4 (acroread) -
silence.
General Question: Why is not Adobe Acrobat installed as standard by
Mandrake?
Tried also to print from Mandrake's ps and pdf viewer - silence.
These all attempt to spool via lpr. I understood CUPS intercepted
all such attempts?
After this all CUPs became inaccesible, requiring a user name and
password to do anything, which it always rejected.
Problem disappeared after uninstalling all cups RPMs and reinstalling
them from the CDs.
