and gave me some useful advice apropos of my printing problem after
upgrade to SuSE 7.0. I was away (abroad) for some days, in a totally
windows-ized university. Now I tried again. I deleted all the
/etc/printcap.* entries. Now the test page (Testseite) is correctly
printed by Yast2, but afterwards pages are not printed. The lpq -a
command answers:
Local printer 'lp' on pentiumiii.miarete:
Warning: queue is not active (no server present).
what is the meaning of this "no server present"? Why "no server
present"?
when I try lpr, the answer is again:
remote host pentiumiii.miarete: illegal ack code '$@': Pipe rotta
Your print job has been sent to printer 'lp', job 2, rank: 1st.
Pipe rotta = broken pipe
Hope someone will be kind again and help me. In fact this is my final
attempt. After 21 days, I received a note from the Italian SuSE office,
but their answer was again rubblish.
May this has something to do with a spooler problem I heard of (new
version -- old version?)
thanks a lot!
guido from italy
(again: I was in the UK for 3 days...)
