9 Hello Mick,

11 This package cannot hurt. It's probably not the problem but you never know.
12 I've used it to fix other things. I assuming you got it hook up on usb?

22 Cups is a funny (not so funny, actually) app. They fix one thing
23 and hose another, all the time.

25 I keep many backups of /etc/cups as the upgrade sometime modify
26 perfectly fine files. If the hwids does hot help, then
27 examine the usb bus to makesure it stillworks. My hp printer
28 qot real intermittant on the ethernet. The plastic part of the
29 RJ45 connector broke, inside. Stange failure, so I just tape
30 the ethernet cable. You got somthing weird. Check the data
31 cable, as I assumed it was USB.
