It's been some years now and can't remember if webmin has its own root account (different from the OS root account). Have you tried login with root as the username and your normal user passwd? I also can't remember what the CUPS interface was on webmin, but what Alan suggests above has always worked for me (once I manage to get the right path for the printer). HTH. -- Regards, Mick
