No, still not working. But I do feel better! <g> There's nothing
special about this setup. Just a Linksys PSUS4 print server with
an HP LaserJet 1300 connected to it. This has worked fine with
Fedora Core 4 and 5. Now since upgrading to FC6 it does not work.
I've tried numerous fixes to no avail, and don't believe it will
work until the software is fixed.


Here's the entry from my printer.conf file. Nothing special.
