[Nottingham] Printing issue

[Siddle, James]

Hi,

Thanks for the offer - but I finally managed to get the printing working. It
turned out to be caused by my choice of options in CUPS. One of the options
is 'Output Type' and in a (somewhat misguided) attempt at saving ink I'd
selected 'Greyscale'. 

As soon as I changed the selection to read 'Colour' it all started working
wonderfully . . .

BTW I won't be able to make it to the meeting tonight as I have a prior
engagement.

Cheers,

Jim
