Try loading the following modules from the command line as root : modprobe uhci modprobe printer and then retry accessing your printer. If it is OK, you can then add the two modules to your /etc/modules file to have them automatically loaded at startup. Of course drop the "modprobe" when inserting the lines to your file... It was successful for me :-) Hope this helps, Dominique
