G'day fellers!

I'm afraid I know next to nothing about printers, so I'll need a bit of 
help, as the RH site's not too crash hot and I'm not finding what I'm after. 
The printer is a USB, HP officejet d145, on an RH 7.3 box, using RH's 
printer setup tool.

What type of printer should I start with? Local? I've started with that, and 
moved onto the device section. The only option is /dev/lp0, is that okay for 
a usb printer? I've been using the officejet d145 driver provided in the 
list, but not a lot's happening.

I honestly haven't got a clue when it comes to printers, so if there's any 
kind PLUGgers out there that can help me, Dad and I will be eternally 
grateful. :)

John
