The story so far: I had cups-1.2.2 and couldn't get KDE to use it with my HP PSC 1400 and hplip. I read somewhere that KDE was only reliable with cups 1.1, so I downgraded CUPS to the last version before it was switched to 1.2.0. That ended up breaking hpiod; so much for that. I had no choice but to upgraded cups back to 1.2.2. I also replaced /usr/local/lib/kde3/cupsdconf.so with a symlink to /usr/local/lib/libkdeinit_cupsdconf.so Now? Pretty much everything to do with printing is broken. If I go to localhost:631, I get the CUPS welcome screen, but all the links load for a long time then just stop. I used to at least print with LPD, now that's gone: A print error occurred. Error message received from system: /usr/local/bin/lpr -P 'PSC_1400' '-#1' '/tmp/kde-sgm/kdeprint_zivvNqlK' : execution failed with message: /usr/local/bin/lpr: Unsupported format 'application/postscript'! I could also print with CUPS out of non-KDE apps like Firefox. Now they just do nothing. The printer is connected fine, because I can get its status and scan with it from hp-setup. It pretty much looks like CUPS is screwed up, and I can't figure out how to fix it. Could someone please help? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
