I finally managed to install the entire cups package(s), and after some trial-and-failure, it now works. The trick was to define it as an "AppSocket/JetDirect" printer in the cups interface, (which I eventually got working,) and use the static IP-address in the Device URI, like "socket://192.168.0.20:9100/". It printed a beautiful printer test page. Thanks to all of you. Someday, I'll take a deeper look at the more classical printer confguration, too. I tried it, but after a staircase printout of the /etc/passwd I figured it might be easier after all to try cups a second time. By the way, apt-get is one fabulous piece of software. I'm very impressed. regards, -- Leif Biberg Kristensen http://solumslekt.org/ mail to leif at solumslekt dot org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
