He is putting you on right track. You need to cat ..... every time printer is powered on. After that it is matter of getting the right print driver. Start all over again and first install printer under cups. Do not print test page but run that cat commnd at this the printer should make some whirring noise and led's blink. Then print the test page with different drivers till you getthe right driver. Off hand I think it is the hpijs driver. -- Sudev Barar Learning Linux _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
