        I'm not sure, does F15 require an entry in /etc/hosts for each
        printer? I don't usually deal with them using hostnames. The
        printer first "installed on the F15 system is connected via a
        D-Link device that simply converts USB to Ethernet, a printer
        server, and the problem was manifest with it. I treat it as
        192.168.1.4 and simply set the rest of the printer set-up stuff
        to whatever satisfies the configuration script. I much preferred
        the old system where I entered data into the cups screen.

        D-Link DP-301U shows: .

        System Status
        Server Name 	: PS-4B9153
        Model 	: DP-301U
        Hardware Version 	: A1
        Firmware Version 	: 1.10 (2003-02-25)
        MAC Address 	: 00 0D 88 4B 91 53
        IP Address 	: 192.168.1.4 (Manual)
        Up Time 	: 2 days, 13:43:42

        Printer Status
        USB

        	Printer Name 	: PS-4B9153-U1

        	Printer Status 	: On line


        I call the printer HL-5040 in the printer configuration screen.

        I've just booted the F15 box and the Printing configuration
        screen shows six printers, duplicates of the first three and
        gives each a different name. I uncheck View, Discover Printers
        and it's reduced to those I have set up. Must I give them the
        names shown in the second set? I will do what ever corrects the
        problem but this is different than what I have had to do  before.

        Thanks for your interest.
