When I try to print, I receive error printer may not be connected. I have it connected to Linksys 610N Router. Editing the printer appears OK because of the DNS numbers for the router are after the printer. Being new to LINUX and seriously wanted to be totally independent of windows, I have become frustrated with this type of issue. I have not clue using Terminal, e.g., SUDO, apt-get and installing a tar.gz package. I have two Ubuntu books, but they give me no clue. I would appreciate your support in these matters.
