Hide Forgot
I have two machines (one is brand new). The old machine was running RH 5.2. The new one came with RH 6.0 installed on it. I have an HP LaserJet 4L installed on the RH5.2 box that works, also with Samba from a 95 box. I upgraded the older box to RH6.1. Printing still worked. I installed RH6.1 on the new box (fresh install). I tried to add the printer via Control Panel (I physically plugged the printer into the new box). Control Panel says that there are no active parallel ports. That msg also comes out at boot time. It says no parallel ports were found but it will load the printer driver anyway. I went back to the older box (now with RH6.1) and deleted the HP laserjet driver in Control Panel | Printers. Then I tried to add it again. Now the old box says that there are no active parallel ports. thanks david sampson dsampson@mindpsring.com
