[X Newbies] Printer problems on X

[Birgit Rhoads]

Actually, printing gets a bit better with Panther.  In Jaguar, I found that
turning the printer off, removing the USB connection and then attaching the
USB connection again, turning the printer back on would most of the time get
it working once more.
