Darryl, Thanks for your suggestion. I added root to the sys group and still the same error message. I then unistalled brightq and cups. Reinstalled cups and brightq, ran the command lppasswd -a root and then tried to configure the printer with brightq. Same result. Fiddling with that, however, gave me the idea of using the ppd file that came on the CD with the copier/printer. I simply used Yast to add the PPD file to the database, and then chose that file for the printer/copier. Worked perfectly and gives me all the options for the printer. Now I don't have to use the third party software from Canon. Mike -- Michael A.
