Paul, this may or may not help, but I think this site is really good as far as setting up a USB scanner with xsane. It is a Gentoo site, but I think most of it is applicable to Fedora as well. I can't help but think this problem is solvable with some simple thing. Good luck!

Thanks for the link. I will check it out. I managed to get my F16 box current and I can't get the admin->printer to see the printer. This is using what worked on F14 -- only installed system-config-print cups hpijs.
I suspect its because of the hook-up (F16 hardwired to Linksys wrt54gl hardwired to Linksys wap54 wireless to Linksys wrt54gl whereas the F14 box is hardwired into the final wrt54gl where the printer is wirelessly beign seen as a DHCP).
I've got to pound on some parts of my system to make sure its really as I think (plus some selinux / clamav / totem tests). Let me get that done, take a look at your suggestion and get back to you.
Really appreciate your taking the time to give me some ideas. Paul
