I am afraid I can't help you now, but I have almost the same problem. The only difference is that my printer is a Brother HL2030 instead of a 2040. The rest is exactly as you describe. lpr, and the problem started yesterday after an upgrade. I'll let you and list know when I find a solution. I think it happened before (maybe a year ago) but I can't remember what I did to fix it. Regards, Jan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
