[Pkg-db-devel] requeset to mail printconf error message..

[John Halvy]

Hi,

As you can see from the message below, I was trying to install a driver for my  Canon Pixma MP140 printer, when it was suggested that I submit the error message to you.

I really don't think this is a big deal since I always use the MP 150 driver (since there is no 140, as far as I know) and it works perfectly (as far as I can tell).. I just simply ran Cups and a test page after installing the MP 150 driver.

I had just plugged in the printer into a basically fresh installed OS, and typed: printconf at the command line, when the message came up. The printer was on (line) at the time.

My OS is Debian 6.0 (mixed), Kernel 2.6.29-2-amd64, on a G60-214 Notebook by HP :)

Thank you for your concern and very hard work!!


Sincerely,

John Kelly
