Question Installing printer through router, Mark II

Here we go again! So suchessfully installed a HP Deskjet f2420 to work for both computers through ASUS router WL-500gP V2. Suddenly, it won't work anymore, and trying to install it like I did the time before through HPAppSocket/JetDirect gives me a warning sign telling that the CUPS-server is somehow wrong and that during the CUPS-operation "client-error-not-possible" there was some kind of a fault and whatever...
Any hint of what to do next???

well, for one thing...
I am not sure if we can help you or not, but if you record and report the error messages clearly and completely it may help us understand the problem.

I could send error messages, but as they are in Finnish there is not much hope that they give you anything useful...
But you know what: I managed to get it installed again, now everything is working just beatifully!!! I love this Ubuntu!
