Just a quickie to say that printing is now working, unfortunately I had to
remove cups and all the other programs associated to cups and then reinstall,
don't know why but it is printing nicely now.
Its been a productive weekend, got my video card upgrade working at the bab
(thanks Adam or was it Adrian :o ) yesterday, tuned spamassassin to catch a
bit more spam, and now today I have got the printer
working......................why do I have this fear of impending doom??
