Hi,

on Tue, 23 Nov 2004 10:05:47 +0000 (GMT) Have done exactly that and any attempt to print ( or even selecting page setup ) results in a hung firefox with process lpd using 20+ % of CPU. Am using windowmkaer from the 9.1 distro and using local filtering to a remote printer via lprng ( not cups as could never get cups to print to the remote )
I use cups. What is your printer? Is it a network printer, or hooked to another machine on the network?
Brother laser on a networked spooler ( gets printed to by a number of MS machines and a SCO machine ) lpstat -p ( as suggested ) shows Printer: lp@mossdog 'lpdfilter drv=upp method=auto color=yes' (dest lp@172.29.136.20) Other apps seem able to print to it fine. Cheers F
