Printing With HP 970cse and CUPS

[Steven Hildreth]

Yeppers, I can use usbview (http://www.kroah.com/linux-usb/) to see the
devices and the HP shows up in that list.

Any further ideas?

Regards,
Steven

ps: Gentoo kicks some serious butt, the Portage distribution system to
avoid dependency hell is excellent!
