CUPS correctly identified the printer on the USB port, and I could find the PPD file for it in the Foomatic drivers list, but it just refuses to print. I know this printer is problematic with Linux, but since it was detected and a driver was available, I'm wondering why it doesn't work. Anyone else have any experience with this? I'm using Debian Etch on x86. -= Obi-Wan =-
