Hi Ron,

[delayed due to pop-before-smtp problems]

Still no go...  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 [30/Sep/2002:17:04:00 -0400] Started filter
/usr/lib/cups/filter/pstops (PID 12469) for job 21.

I [30/Sep/2002:17:04:00 -0400] Started backend
/usr/lib/cups/backend/parallel (PID 12471) for job 21.

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
