Dear All,

Until I installed Etch and a 2.6.12 kernel I had a perfectly good printing 
setup on Sarge with a 2.4.x kernel. I remember using the Gnome CUPS tool and 
finding drivers for my Brother printer as well as an HP printer both of which 
are network printers. During my trial and error I could delete printers.

Now it's all so utterly primitive. I cannot delete any printer I set up, there 
are no Brother drivers available, I cannot even get a test page through. What 
has happened to CUPS? Using http://localhost:631/ is also horribly broken. Has 
anyone recent experience of a good tutorial or HOW-TO that they would care to 
recommend?

One thing that strikes me is that I seem, even as root, to be short of rights 
to control and configure my printers. Are there some pre-conditions I may have 
failed to meet?

Thanks,
Nigel
