Now that he owns this printer, deleting the USB config files and adding a TCP/IP print server would likely fix the problem, for an extra $40-50 USD or so. This is just one of the reasons I always recommend purchasing network enabled printers for use with Linux instead of USB. For another $40-50 USD he could have had a Brother, Lexmark, Samsung mono laser with a built in ethernet print server. You don't get these USB device identification problems with network printers. Matter of fact, I recommend network printers for Windows home users as well, since most homes have more than 1 PC needing to print these days. -- Stan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
