[QUOTE="timinak, post: 1315728, member: 214908"] :Blushing: Never mind. Brain fart! Yes. That has been done and this (Canon) printer is being used by other linux boxes here. If I go ahead and add the printer and go to print, I get a conversion to PDF, choose print again, and get an error message that the [COLOR="DarkRed"]URI is incorrect or no longer exists[/COLOR]. FYI: The URI for the printer can be obtained from Cups as in [url]http://192.168.1.5:631[/url], choose 'Printers' and then select the printer itself. But for the life of me I can't see where to enter the printer URI in the Lion->System Preferences->Printers window. Furthermore, I can't see how to edit an installed printer. Thanks again Tim [/QUOTE]
