Hi, You don't mention which printing system you are using. If you are using lprold, type help under LPC you will be given all the options available. From memory if you run the 'restart' command it will restart the daemon. You may have to try some of the other commands to clear out the spools. If cups issue the following command as root to restart the daemon /etc/init.d/cups restart Regards, Graham Smith ---------------------------------------- On Sun, 30 Sep 2001 08:42, Lawrence Sayre wrote:

I have suddenly developed a printing problem in SusE Linux 6.3, after nearly two years of no problems.
Suddenly, when I print, I get the message "job queued, but can't start daemon". Nothing prints. Is there a cure for this malady?
