Hi All,

Yet again I'll be very grateful for any help you can give me.....

I just upgraded to F13 on my 2 systems & on both of them, I seem to be 
unable to print.  The 2 machines are
  a) my desktop
uname -ar
Linux Fedora-Blue 2.6.34.7-61.fc13.i686.PAE #1 SMP Tue Oct 19 04:24:06 
UTC 2010 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
which was fresh-installed because preupgrade wouldn't reboot(Grrrr)

and b) my laptop which was preupgraded.

The printer is an Epson Stylus DX6050 which "always" worked before....

Strange thing is that under previous Fedoras, I had to fight to get the 
scanner recognised, this time, the scanner is recognised & working, but 
I can't get any of the print commands to offer me anything but a "write 
.pdf to file".

Can anyone suggest what I've forgotten to check?????????

As ever, great thanks for any suggestions!

Dave
