Hi All,

I have a Samsung ML-1210 printer and I am running Fedora. I have tried
to install the printer as a USB PostScript printer and print a test page
but the green LED blinks once, the paper feed engages as if to print but
then the whole thing stalls. If I inspect the printer log it says that
its feed tray is empty which it most centainly not (because if I boot up
Win2K it works fine)! Hence, I cannot get any output at all. :-(

Any ideas?

Cheers,

Graeme.
