Are you using RedHat? If so make sure that when you use the lp* commands, they are going to Cups. By default they are for LPRng. I know the latest versions anyway use the alternitives system (from debian) to allow switching easily. I have the ML-1250 and like it a lot. I use Cups, because I like the nice web interface for it.. and management under cups with a network makes more logical sence to me than the lpr style. I have mine set up on Debian, and had all sorts of troubles with USB permissions screwing things up, so I went to using Paralell (I dont do that much printing so the speed difference dosnt bother me) Jay On Wednesday 10 July 2002 11:15 pm, Austad, Jay wrote: > Ok, so I got a shiny new Samsung ML-1450.
