I searched there and found some things, but they didn't help. Do I need to upgrade to Potato do you think? Will that even make a difference? Should I just blow the whole partition and start over? :) > I went to the linux hardware database, followed the links, and ended up > on someone's web page where he had a downloadable file with the proper > drivers for the 740.

Unfortunately it didn't help me. :( Maybe I should just delete everything printing related and start from scratch? I don't know, it just seems like it should be easier than this. I don't know if it's just more Linux stuff that's absurdly difficult and nerdy, of if I just suck.... :) Thanks for your efforts :) Matthew Thompson http://mattyt.net [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oz.net/~mattyt --Someday, I'll have a web page.-- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
