Hmm, I don't think your problems have much to do with CUPS, rather with your printer drivers. I say that, because I have various installations, with different printers and some are crappy and others are purrrrrfect, the only difference being the printers and their drivers.
Your comment that you have to restart the printer first and then CUPS, seems to confirm this - it is the driver that gets schkrewed up, causing CUPS to give up in disgust. I have seen the same things.
So, try to find a new printer driver or try the very lastest version of foomatic.
Font problems have been solved. You don't have to fight with it anymore. Just get any one of the new distros. If all else fails, read my tiny fonts howto on aerospacesoftware.com.
From this slashdot thread, it is clear that most people who are complaining about stuff are still running old distros, and all they need to do to get to GNU/Linux Nirvana is to upgrade.
Your burning problem may be a bug in your software. I found that XCDRoast causes a kernel panic, but K3B works perfectly. Together with Mandrake's Supermount feature, I have zero problems with ejecting CDs anymore.
It used to be a big irritation, but this is another example of a bug that has been solved, even though it still annoys a lot of people.
or distribution info is my pet peeve. Howto guides go out of date faster than the speed of white light. This book will be the same. Unless they state the distribution, version and date of each problem and its solution, then it will be quite useless.
Projecting advertisements onto clouds is prohibited in most countries, since way back when some assholes thought it would be cool to write laser adverts on clouds above the cities, it spurned very hasty, world-wide legislation to stop this visual polution. This screen system therefore would have some difficulties...
A revealing thing about that photo, is how it shows the outline of some countries, eg South Africa and especially Israel.
Darkest Africa is still the norm after more than a hundred years of electricity. Similarly, Israel stands out amongst its neighbours as the only developed area in that part of the world.
Oh, get real. If OOo is good enough for a lawyer, who makes his money from paper documents, then it is good enough for the masses. I have been using OOo for 3 years now - it is pretty durn good.
Well, in the time honoured tradition, repressed citizens of the freedom loving USA, can still flee to Canada. Maybe, just maybe, claiming persecution by the evil RIAA, will get you refugee status.
If anything, it will probably get the Vietnam vets and slave traders to spin in their graves at 45rpm...
Your problem is that you did not network - network with people that is. To start a small business, you *have* to join a circle of businesses, eg Toastmasters, BNI, PGIB, Rotary etc. - even join multiple ones.
Schmoozing and Networking is Hard Work and the secret to success.
You are totally missing the point. Free software is all about *service* and *support*. All you need to do to be drowning in high paying work up to your ying-yang, is to join a local Business Breakfast Club, Toastmasters, Rotary or whatever.
The reason being that most small business owners do not know anything about computers and more importantly, do not want to be bothered with it at all and they are very quick to seize on the cost benefits of free software.

That is why most states have a Sale of Goods Act. Before you submit to this kind of bullying, see a lawyer.
buy all these products in Germany or any other state where a sale is a sale.
is one of the largest sponsors.
Funny, I used to design and manufacture Wireless Access Points that ran Linux...

Supermount on Mandrake handles these issues somehow. This problem has been fixed!

So, use Supermount you foul mouthed moron...
Mandrake has Supermount working. So, you press the CDROM eject button - can't be easier...

At least there is still one country in the Americas that is not a total police state.
