All right. I've never had to do so before, but I have now. I've also set |

USE=zeroconf on /net-print/cups and remerged it. Both cupsd and cups-browsed |

are in the default run level. I've even tried connecting via USB-2; when I |
8 |
plug it in I get this in syslog: |

That all looks okay to me, no? But still cups can't see the printer. |

I found a way, eventually. I had to declare the printer manually, under Add |
19 |
Printer. I chose ipp and gave it the URL ipp://<ip-addr>/ipp/print. It was |
20 |
found instantly and I could set the paper size. But when I print an Amazon |
21 |
return label with Firefox, I get just the text with a blank, framed box where |
22 |
the QR and bar codes should be. |

|
24 |
Google-chrome printed it though. |

Emerge -pv firefox returned this: |

Am I missing something important from that? |
