So, something got lost somewhere between your vista box and your cups |
13 |
server, eh? Some logs would be nice. (On vista, open up the print |
14 |
queue, and see if there are any errors; on gentoo, give us |
15 |
/var/log/cups/, preferably trimmed to show just before you tried to |
16 |
send a print job from the laptop and just after.) |
