    Hi, I am trying to setup a HP Laserjet 6L with RH 9. First of all I
    rebooted the machine with the printer connected & powered up, Kudzo
    found the new device, correctly identified it and allegedly installed
    the driver. The damn thing wont do anything, can't print the CUPS test
    file, can't print from any applications, can't even print a text file by
    using lpr. The only clue I can find is an entry in /var/log/messages
    which appears when the CUPS server is restarted -

    modprobe: Can't locate module char-major-188

    The printer works fine plugged into a Doze box.

    If anyone has any suggestions they would be much appreciated, .

    regards,

    Scott
