I just picked this thread at this point. If you're using kde, it's as simple as using the kde control center and choosing to add a printer; a wizard will guide you (you'll see the choice of ML-1710). Brendan -- I also have the ML-1740. Where did you get the CUPS install program? I'm using the ML-1710 driver, which I set as in the previous paragraph, as the ML-1740 is not listed. Things work, but not optimally, so info on using the actual ML-1740 driver would be appreciated. Thanks, -- Sebastian P.
