[SLUG] argh! printer not workiong on ubuntu :(
ok, I've had enough - I really want my printer working and I just can't seem ot get it to. :( I run ubuntu (hoary) and it seems to detect it's there just fine, but it keeps telling me "parallel port busy will try again" - of course it's a USB printer and I keep changing it to either "use detected printer" or even "USB port #1" (after checking that it actually is a) plugged into said port and b) turned on). it still won't actually print me up a test page this is really annoying as it was working fine when I had it on Warty. :( is anyone able to help me figure out what's going wrong here? :( Thanks in advance, Taryn -- This .sig temporarily out-of-order.
