Ok, I found it there as you say, but it seems different than what was 
required in the recent past. I think I was finding Maintenance from 
Administration, but maybe I am slipping, could be Altzheimers! :-)


Other than finding that in cups the printers have worked without a 
problem Until I got a list in html that I had to change to pdf and I 
neglected to preview the result and the printer started t regurgitate 
all the paper printing various parts of the document.


Thank you,   Bob

From the Printers section you have to pick a printer and then there is a
Maintenance drop down and under there is "Print Test" page.

No problem here.

Re: CUPS print test page -

Is your printer configured using an IP address or is it just being
discovered via mDNS?  I had an issue with my F32 upgrade that the
mdns4_minimal entry was removed from /etc/nsswitch.conf that broke
printing for me.

CUPS print test page -

2020-05-16 Thread Bob Goodwin
I had a printer problem an hour ago and in the course of straightening 
things out I found that I could not print a CUPS test  page. Is that a 
new situation for Fedora 32? I also tried the Print Settings in the 
Administration section. As I remember there was a Maintenance menu in 
CUPS that had two test options, I see no Maintenance in CUPS now. I may 
have something wrong in my setup but can't imagine what? I set up both 
printers with the Brother Linux printer tool  as I have been doing for a 
few years and until tonight I had no need to use CUPS, there has been no 
problem printing and it did print a test page with one I found by 
googling for it.


What's wrong, is it just me? I've seen no other complaints bout this.   Bob
