Returning HTTP Forbidden for CUPS-Add-Modify-Printer other than that, deleting the "dpkg" command i had installed on my rawhide system fixed the oddity in that script. i'm not crazy about the glitches in trying to print duplex and 4 page images to a side, the alignment seems off, but i'd like to resolve this "Forbidden" admin issue before i go any further. rday p.s. i'm starting to miss my old samsung printer, which just flat out *worked* right out of the box, duplex printing and everything. le *sigh*. -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
