ok, thanks!

No it did not print - neither the A4-postscript nor the ASCII-page. The
printer is connected via the parallel interface (centronics).

strange, possibly this errormessage has nothing to do with the problem.
Is there somewhere an other more printer-specific logfile where I can
look?

Also I can not print out of Abiword (and possibly other X-Apps) since I
can not select the created printer. Is this by design? Would an
extra-step be necessary to see a "redhat-config-printer"-created printer
in X-Progs?

Bye, Ingo.
