Thanks for the hardware tips as well ... I am an oldefart and retired over 25 years ago. So, I do spend a lot of time on my computers. I have the new(er) box up and running and updated with 18.04...
THANK YOU!! Nice and quick! (not sure as to what are the "personal files". Guess I will get the 18.4 now and get that part done.)
Well, comes a time when upgrading is the only answer, but I am at a loss as to how to do it!
I picked up a new box with lots of disk space, lots of memory, and a 4 core processor (64 bit)
The old...

no joy on that one either!! I KNOW I am missing something here.
I took some time and un-installed and re-installed CUPS .. that was not the answer, but at least I KNOW for sure that the whole...
nor does localhost:631/admin .. same story
got some time to work on this for the next couple of days.

found this on HPLIP site:
Manual Duplex feature is not yet supported through HPLIP. HPLIP supports only Auto Duplex feature as of now.
Thanks,

So all of the time wasted on that was...
In doing a bit of research, it was recommended that I use the HPLIP from the HP site as it would, most likely solve the issue. Turns out it did NOT solve the problem, but everything else works just...
It turns out that the problem is in the repository version of HPLIP. There is a slightly different version available FROM HP. BUT, my copy/paste into terminal gets me NOWHERE. Been a VERY long...
Managed to mess around and get the activate button where I could click on it. But the printer ignores the instructions or it is not GETTING the instructions .. I go to the printer after it has been...

Running an old semi home brew HP. It worked great on 14.04 and 12.04 and 10.04. This 16.04 is dodgy right now. It works and then it just STOPS, screen turns to grey overcast, and sometimes comes...
Yesterday (Sunday-11th) I updated my 14.04 to 16.04 and now am having issues. Mostly with poor response with my Logitech wireless trackball and with screens FREEZING and washing to GREY! (requiring...
