I can configure the printer via printerdrake or localhost:631 -- from all indications on the system, the file *is* printing; but the printer shows **NO** activity. top shows this while the printing should be happening: 12475 lp 15 0 7860 7860 2604 R 44.2 2.5 0:04 gs 12476 root 15 0 3228 3228 1448 R 25.5 1.0 0:01 foomatic-printj 12470 lp 9 0 2176 2176 2016 S 9.3 0.6 0:01 cupsomatic The cups logs show no errors: I [30/Sep/2002:17:04:00 -0400] Job 21 queued on 'Printer' by 'root'.

I even see this: 12575 root 9 0 756 756 512 S 11.7 0.2 0:02 parallel for the length of time the printer should be getting data... I placed a radio next to the printer in the hopes of hearing noise from the signals --- nothing... When I get back home, I'll burn the 9.0 CDs and try that... kinda sucks to see W98 print fine... :^P Thanks, Pierre
