Since my install of SuSE 5.1 - when I go to send a file to lpr - the
printer just gives a reset - no other signs of life.  There is only one
printer on the system, it's on the paralell port and it works fine when I
restart into DOS or Windows.  The books and HOW TOs that I found say to
edit the dot file .profile by the command export PRINTER=xx  

My problem is where to find a list that gives me the xx for a given printer
model.  All I could find was postscript=ps

Failing a list, any of you know what to call a 24 pin Panasonic?  Or is
there an easier way to reconfigure this?

TIA

Dave
