I basically re-installed everything (including config files and the foomatic filters) from scratch. I also changed the permissions on /dev/ulpt0 to be 0664 for root:cups. That prevents the permissions error, but I still get nothing from the printer. The message that comes up in the cups web interface when I try to print a test page is: "/usr/local/libexec/cups/backend/usb failed" I did get my other printer (on a different machine) working with cups 1.2.0 by just changing the permissions on the device node. I hadn't ever set this printer up with cups before today, though. It's using gutenprint. JN
