I'm unable to configure a printer, connected via usb, under

Fedora 14 Anaconda recognized and configured automatically. The hardware configuration has not changed. The URI for the printer generated by Anaconda was usb://HP/LaserJet%201300
Using this URI to configure the printer on Fedora 15 does not
work; the
test page job is queued, but not printed. Ditto using
usb://HP/LaserJet
FWIW, here's the USB description for the port. The "Belk" is a
Belkin
parallel-to-usb adapter. Same as under Fedora 14.

I'd really appreciate some assistance.
Thanks.
Have you tried to connect the printer directly to the parallel port, without the belkin converter, and reboot?
Belkin devices aren't necessarily known for their linux support.
Hmmm .... the converter has been working with many previous versions of Fedora. Could it be that linux is not supporting the device now? Seems unlikely, though, as all the device is doing is converting between Parallel and USB. Could also be that its died, athough doing it between 14 and 15 seems unlikely.
