Fixed. Dunno what changed, not a clue. I just deleted the printer from 
the cups menu, then re-added it using the same foomatic driver.  It now 
works from kmail...  That faint scratching sound? Me, scratching head.

One of those thing that make you go "huh?". Like trying to put the deck 
drive belt back on a 20 year old John Deere rider, without a threading 
diagram.

Way too much exercise for an old fart, but somebody had to do it. Extra 
tum's for the calcium, a big B12 pill and some quinine in the night to 
stop the leg cramps a geriatric old diabetic is prone to. Walking slowly 
& carefully this morning.
