Hi,
1. Do you have free space in /var?
Yes, it's got plenty of free space.
2. Do you have a directory called /var/spool/lpd/ljet2p-letter-auto-mono-300?
Yes -- the contents of the directory appear at the bottom of the e-mail. It seems that the .seq file might be causing this problem.

After upgrading to 2.2.1, I discovered that I can't get my HP-compatible printer (on /dev/lp1) to work.
Here's the error message when I call lpr on any printing job:
"cannot create /var/spool/lpd/ljet2p-letter-auto-mono-300/.seq"
Any idea as to what might be behind this? I don't think it's permission-related, but I may be wrong.
