Thanks for the advice. I tried what you recommended, but no luck. I even rm -rf'd the lp1 directory (and its subs), called yast, and reconfigured a printcap from scratch. The new printcap set up a new set of directories under /lp1, and got rid of some junk. *Still* no luck. I can't get a handle on what's happening here. I've even rebuilt a new bzImage or two, not that this should help. I'm running out of ideas. Whew. S K SENTHIL VEL wrote:
Hi, try this out, it should work. Become superuser and give the following command:
mkdir /var/spool/lpd/ljet2p-letter-auto-mono-300
actually 'ljet2p-letter-auto-mono-300' should be replaced with whatever entry it has got in /etc/printcap file.
For example, if the followinf entry is there in /etc/printcap,
ps|raw:\ :lp=:rm=100.0.0.10:rp=raw:sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp1_raw :mx#0:\ :of=/usr/spool/lp1/hpjlps: :lf=/usr/spool/lp1/ps-log:
then issue 'mkdir /var/spool/lpd/lp1_raw'
