All fixed. The problem was that Fedora 11 did not install any printer drivers. Apparently Debian Testing did. Furthermore, even after installing the driver from Add/Remove Software I discovered that the drivers I had just installed were not the same drivers as I had used before. So I had to go into each printer and change the drivers. In a way it was good because it made me delete a couple printers that I never use, and re-label the rest so I could keep track of them more easily. Now the label in the CUPS GUI utility matches the internal names, so when I want to use lpr I can tell more easily what the name of the printer is for the -P option. I also discovered a couple cool little Gtk tools. One is a print job manager that is much nicer than the one from CUPS. The other is a GUI front end for the lp command. I can just select the printer from a drop-down, and browse for the file I want to print. All the rest of the options are just clickable too. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
