Hi Michael,

Thanks for your suggestion. I upgrade it to 1.1.20 and it does not hang anymore.

I have one question does you know any links for Pacific DirectNet PEPS3 pocket ethernet print server?  Well, we've been using thi ever since and I can not let cups to see this printer server.  I always try to connects but the printer server hangs....

REgards,
