Message-ID:
A Message for SuSE.
Firstly did you register your copy of Suse linux with them yes I did. I received a first answer, but it was totally useless and clearly nonsense -- they told me to look for a better driver: for a HPLJIIIp, better for archaeology than for computing! So I replied, saying something like: please send me a real answer, not this rubbish -- no answer at this stage...

Ok. End of sermon :)
As for your printer problem. Get rid of all traces of the printer installation. You can do this by brute force, how? deleting all the spool directory?
or I believe you can do it through the SETUP program that comes with apsfilter. With SETUP you may have more luck installing it as well. tried it, no change.
It seems to me that the clue must be in that "broken pipe" message. Why
a broken pipe?
lpr -Pprinter1 ~/moglie.txt
Dec 1 12:19:15 pentiumiii lpr printer1: remote host
pentiumiii.miarete: illegal ack code '$@': Pipe rotta
Your print job has been sent to printer 'printer1', job 2, rank:
2nd.
"Pipe rotta" is the Italian for "broken pipe".
is there still hope?
