Hello Roland I once, long time ago faced the same problem with my old HP695C DeskJet printer but in LM 8.1 not in 8.2 that I'm running right now. I did the following: from the Mandrake Control Center I removed completely the printer, went to SysVInit from the root account GUI and restarted CUPS server. I went on to the Mandrake Control Center and reinstalled the Printer choosing another driver than the recommended one. Everything worked fine. And everytime I faced problems I was shutting down and restarting the CUPS server. Sometimes when this didn't work and my printer was still printing crap, I rebooted. Hope this helps temporarily Greetings Dimitris Ioannou ____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? &Agr;&pgr;&ogr;&kgr;&tgr;&eeacgr;&sgr;&tgr;&egr; &tgr;&eegr; &dgr;&ohgr;&rgr;&egr;&aacgr;&ngr; @yahoo.gr &dgr;&igr;&egr;&uacgr;&thgr;&ugr;&ngr;&sgr;&eegr; &sgr;&agr;&sfgr; &sgr;&tgr;&ogr; http://www.otenet.gr
