I can't think of anything simpler than cups. try: /usr/bin/enable printername if that doesn't work try: /etc/init.d/cupsys stop /etc/init.d/cupsys start Making sure the printer is on, and the usb printer module is loaded. I don't know if there is a way to force cupsys to just assume the printer is there even if it is off with USB printers. I always just leave the printer on personally so it generally doesn't become a problem. Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
