I'll have to set this as unshared too since I really don't need drive by spammers trashing my printer and print jobs with their garbage. I don't know how to translate hp-probe's output to anything acceptable to lpoptions. jude <jdash...@shellworld.net> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
