Hi There,

I just installed a new network printer at home... Samsung ML-2250N with an embeded network adapter... Installed like a charm on "Wincrap XP" !!

When I started to install it on my RH9, I manage to create the Cue and tested the cue no problem !! BUT every time I open the Gnome Print manager, It tells me that their is no printer installed and asks me if I want to install 1 now !! No matter what I do, it never works !!

That's my little problem, Please someone help me !!

Thanks in advance

I tend to use Cups on every install I have, including really tight installs, it just works so much nicer than anything else I've ever tried.

Once you have it installed, you start the server:
service cups start
Could be cupsd if there is a complaint about cups not being found.

Then, fire up a browser and head to:
http://localhost:631
Click on the Printer tab, then Add Printer. Follow the steps, and enjoy.

Cool

I would realy like to use CUPS but I always get a

Forbidden page !!

I don't know what would cause that but it is happening !

I am still stuck !!

Thanks

Usually that is due to cups not being started. For troubleshooting, you may want to just start it from the command line:
cupsd
As root. Then surf on over to the page above.

Good Luck!

Cool

Thanks...
What I had to do ... Was to remove CUPS V1.0 and install the newer version... 1.2.something... that I Configured everything manualy... cupsd.conf, printers.conf,...

Then the printer showed-up in printer manager !! and I can print !!! :-))

Thanks for your help
