I am running an early 6.1-STABLE (FreeBSD dell.home.iq > 6.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE #0: Sat May 13 01:04:32 EDT 2006 > root@dell.home.iq:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/IQKERNEL i386). Just a "me too" so far with an el cheapo Lexmark USB laser printer (E210). Are you using the foomatic script? I am, with a PPD from linuxprinting.org. I'm going to try backing up and blowing away my etc/cups dir, re-updating the port, reinstalling foomatic and my ppd, and see if that makes any difference. I'll post whatever I learn. JN
