In my case, I have one cable, don't remember the brand but the printer did never work via USB in F14, The system recognized it but as "usb://unknown" and it never printed. Using a PARALLELL TO PARALLELL cable worked fine in many linux distros tough, even F14. -- Manuel Escudero Linux User #509052 Twitter: @Jmlevick <http://twitter.com/Jmlevick> Blogger: Blog Xenode <http://xenodesystems.blogspot.com/> PGP/GnuPG: E2F5 12FA E1C3 FA58 CF15 8481 B77B 00CA C1E1 0FA7 Xenode Systems - xenodesystems.com <http://www.xenodesystems.com/> - "Conéctate a Tu Mundo"
