Where's that file: message.txt, that you mention? I can't see it... Besides, in /etc/cups/ppd there's no ML192x.ppd, there's ML191x.ppd... > out.prn is a file which can be sent directly to the Samsung printer. > But I haven't got such a printer, you say.

Well, I gave that command 8 also, but... printer still doesn't work... Am I missing something? Thanks for any further help, really need it... Rodolfo
