Just trying, I deleted the hp printers via yast, powercycled the printer, stopped/started cups and ran hp_setup once more, assigning a different fay queue name, which led to the creation of two new queues. Finally, just to be on the safe side I restarted hplip as well. But fax direcly from hp-sendfax or alternatively via OpenOffice still does not work, giving the "usual errors" Could you possibly let me know how your fax printer definition looks like? For example, mine is like this: Device URI: hpfax:/net/HP_LaserJet_3390?ip=192.168.1.3 which I get from the cups admin interface at http://localhost:631/printers > > Good Luck Thanks and thank you very much for your help. I think if your 3380 is working ok, I should be able to do the same with my 3390/3392 regards Eberhard ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
