Yes I have seen this security tab and will play with it at some time, I think this might bring the brake through. Ummmm, when you say "Why do i Use Cups..." Not to sound dumb but what else should/could I use, If I remember correctly I tried to hit the printer directly but this did not work well also... and I thought CUPS is the best way to setup printers on a Linux Network, Please note this is not TCP/IP printers (I have 1 on the network but have NO problems with this printer) thanx -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
