I did a clean install of F28. Couldn't get the upgrade to work!! So
I
don't think it would be old extensions, but then I do a lot of
development work and get loads of stuff downloaded from time to time
installing the bits I need, and some of that may have imported old
stuff.
Should I add the printer using the cups 631 interface or the settings
panel? The settings panel just threw me off today when I was
attempting to answer your first message.
After seeing the cruft in journalctl, I did a journalctl reset and
set
it to just keep 2 days worth. I may want to up that later.

addendum. Just checked. Printer is now working??? Don't know what did
that unless it was cleaning the journalctl files. Is that in a closed
volume under F28? I had plenty of diskspace, more than 300GiB.
Should I close this now, or is there something I should check to see
what mucked it up in the first place?
