Hello Felix, Sometimes if for some reason the printing fail such as you forget to turn on the printer first, etc, Suse will "disable" the printer. There are 2 ways to fix it. Delete the printer from Yast and add it again, or "Re-enable" the printer using Cups (quicker way). To enable: 1. lppasswd -a root 2. Open Firefox to http://localhost:631 3. Klik on start button in Cups's GUI. 4. Or from CLI: cupsenable printername HTH, -- Fajar Priyanto | Reg'd Linux User #327841 | Linux tutorial http://linux2.arinet.org 4:03pm up 8:29, 2.6.18.2-34-default GNU/Linux Let's use OpenOffice. http://www.openoffice.org
