Well, with the copying taking 40 minutes as well, its surely something internal to the printer. Not to say the upgrade didn't 'cause' the problem in the first place, but its surely local to the printer at this point. go to HP's website. they have instructions on how to do a full reset of a lot of their printers there. Different combinations of unplugging (not just turning off) and also disconnecting the connection to the computer as well as certain combinations of buttons on the contral panel will do it. Basically, it'll reset the onboard registers of the printer. might do the trick. hth A > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST@lists.debian.org > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
