Well done :-) I went quiet coz I didn't have a clue where to go after my suggestions. In my experience CUPS+foomatic Just Works(tm). I guess your solution would be useful for other printers too. It's good to know you can just insert an updated ppd - I might do this with HP2100 and Kyocera 3800 drivers on my lapdog. Thanks for the follow-up. I was curious as to how it worked out for you :) --James __________________________________ A random quote of nothing: The onset and the waning of love make themselves felt in the uneasiness experienced at being alone together. -- Jean de la Bruyere -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
