If you upgrade to stable on 20020807 or later, you may have problems with USB printers not actually printing the job, but just holding it in memory. If this is the case, edit your /usr/local/etc/cups/printers.conf file and change the device for the printer from /dev/unlptX to /dev/ulptX and restart cupsd. This should solve the problem. I have committed a patch to cups base which will affect newly added or configured printers only. You could recondigure the printer using the admin interface, too, after rebuilding cups. Editing the file is easier IMO. -- AlanE KDE-FreeBSD Team To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
