The printer installed never appears as a icon in Gnome printer window.

Linux V9 installed ok and loads ok, no error messages.

V9 was installed on a old Gateway and the printer installed with no problem at 
all.

Additional info:

The printer was tested with a boot 3 1/2 flop, w win98-2 to be sure that there 
was not a problem in the hardware, it printer perfectly.

Have been fighting this problem for over 2 weeks.

Component is wrong -- fixing.

Comment 2 Tim Waugh 2003-11-05 16:44:39 UTC
Please attach the output of 'printconf-tui --Xexport', taking care to
replace any passwords it contains.
