You may want to - check you've installed the right packages for CUPS printing. You can do - this with YaST2 Install/Remove software. In 7.3 there were two - incompatible printing systems; so you might have to change this. This could be part of the problem. We have been going at this so long, I have a hard time remembering ;-) YAST 2 says that the 7.3 Pro version of CUPS is 1.1.10-25 and not installed, but I installed CUPS 1.1.14 from source early on in this odessy. YAST 2 does state that CUPS-libs 1.1.10-25 is installed. - Now start YaST2 and add the new printer. It's probably wise to delete - any old printer settings first, assuming you're not going to connect two - printers. Here, I'm guessing a bit because I can't remember how YaST2 - worked under 7.3, but I think you can add the printer and YaST2 will - detect the configuration file that you installed with gimp-print. You - should also choose a CUPS printer. Deleted the old printer settings. CUPS doesn't list the Epson C80, so I aborted the configuration. Cheers, Brian
