Subject: Printing woes in mandrake 8.2
I've learned to live without printing for a while, MDK8.2 never once
talks actual printing to my USB Epson Stylus Colour 900 except
occasionally on bootup (very rare. it's a server) but as I posted within
the last couple months and someone was nice enough to respond that I had
to recompile the kernel for whatever reason. I think i'll try lp0 first
once I get a long enough cable.

It is an hp photosmart p1000. kde found the right driver in its list and applied it. It has a name and port address. I did however get a pop-up screen when finalizing the config that said:(in Kmail) kde has logeed a request to access local host on port 631 but requires a password. It brings up my local login name and when I use my password it kicks it back as invalid. Any Ideas on how to solve this?
