Printer config

    Hey all,

    I grabbed a (USB) DeskJet 950C and it showed up in good shape. The printer checks out good and printed a test page just fine. I see the device is quite alive when I run "usbdevlister". I have followed the guides on getting the printer configured. I do see a warning when I add the PPD file:

    This printer description requires CUPS filter: hpcups.
    Are you sure you have installed it?


    I picked "No, Let's try without CUPS filter".

    (I extracted this 950C.PPD from a HPLIP.tar.gz for Ubuntu.)

    I have the USBPAR: set as the output path, printer set to default, and I also mounted USBPAR: in the user-startup. USBPAR is in the DosDrivers Drawer.

    After a reboot, does any one have any tips on why MultiView "Could not find printer" ?

    Thanks much in advance,

    -E
