out of the blue (at least it seems that way to me) I can't print to my samsung color laser printer, but get an error message:
"recoverable: Unable to connect to printer; will retry in 30 seconds...: Operation timed out" - copied from the cups webpage at: http://127.0.0.1:631/printers what I have done so far: googled a lot turned of printer sharing tried to reset the printer system from the print tool deleted the printer and set it up again - both as ip printer and lpd no luck below is what I found in the console.log - which is mostly gibberish to me, but I guess I didn't succed in resetting the printer system...? the problem occurs on both my alu G4 powerbook and my husbands G5 imac, both running 10.4.11 both are happily printing to the very elderly lw 16/600, everything linked together with a simple switch not sure about the imac, but the pb has been printing fine to this printer in the past what to do next?
