Yup, that helped me a bit further. However, after having installed the printer using the web-interface for CUPS and attempting to print a test page, I encounter this problem: "/usr/lib/cups/backend/canon_parallel failed" Suggestions? Helge F. On 1/17/07, Joe Gilmour <jgilmour@bigpond.net.au> wrote:
