[NTLUG:Discuss] Redhat 7.2 printer

[Charley Arnold]

Hi,

    I have been following this thread because
I have have been unable to get my Cannon S450
printer to work under RH 7.2. The symptoms seem
identical to what you describe. I have tried both
the USB and parallel connections with the same
(lack of) result.

    I realize that this doesn't help you beyond the
implication that maybe the problem is with the RH 7.2.
I thought I would chime in hoping this would spark
some guru response.

Thanks,
CEA
