No job, no printer. Is this CUPS? my settings in the Gimp at least were
correct for the printer. I have tried using Webmin, but the C80 driver isn't
listed even after install of Gimp-Print. YAST 2 doesn't list it either, but
says something about another non-YAST 2 printer setup existing. Anyone using
Webmin have a word of advice?

Still stuck with the paper being spit out.

- directory, then go into cups and remove the printer entirely and start
- again.

This is greek to me. You mean I now have to delete CUPS and The GIMP and
reinstall to get this to work? I know this isn't your fault, but what kind of
#ยค%* OS is this anyway? We have been working on this for how long now and I
have to redo 2/3 of what has already been done to be able to maybe get this
to work?

Cheers,

Brian
