All went well, although I had to run as root because I moved the run file to /opt/. When it finished I could scan, but not print. I knew I shouldn't have done it at this time of night :-) I decided that I should remove all the printer queues from localhost:631 then run the install. I got warning: A previous install of HPLIP is installed and/or running. error: The previously installed version of HPLIP may conflict with the new one being installed. error: It is recommended that you quit this installer, and manually remove HPLIP before continuing. So I tried make uninstall make: *** No rule to make target `uninstall'. Stop. This time I will definitely leave it until morning. Question is, though, what do I do now? It looks as though my attempts to help myself have just dug me in deeper :-( Anne ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
