I was wondering if there was a way to tweak the configuration for that device by adding/editing a cups-conf file and how to do it. All help will be appreciated. Just in case its needed, I am running Ubuntu dapper with a 2.6.15-26-server kernel and gnome 2.14.3 regards, -K - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
