Hi All....this ones got me stumped..
I have a Canon BJC265SP printer that was working ok under Red Hat 8 and now 
that i have upgraded to Red Hat 9 (complete new install ) Kuduzu has found 
the printer and had configured it for CUPS....the problem is that it wont 
print....when i try and print a test page it says that the testpage has been 
sent to the printer but nothing happens....ive even left it for a few minutes 
in case it is doing its thing.......I have even tried to configure it under 
LPR/LPRng but still nothing.....under Red Hat 8 i found for LPR/LPRng i had 
to use the driver for BJC2000 to get it to work well but that wont work under 
RH 9....the printer is working as i had to use that other nasty O/S of Gates 
fame yesterday and it printed ok with it......

The comp is a Celeron 2.2 ghz on a MSI 7005v1 m/b with the parrell port set in 
the bios to EPP.....the LPD is loading with the startup....

Another Question ..has anyone had a CanoScan FP330P working with Linux

Thanks for all your help
