I tried what you suggested. It seemed to be a step in the right direction. After I issued lpc start all, and then checked lpc status all, I got reasonable results. Moreover, I didn't get the "connection refused" messages from my print jobs that I had before. However, having said all that, nothing printed.
Here is the result of lpc status all p35_05: queuing is enabled printing is enabled no entries no daemon present lp35A: queuing is enabled printing is enabled 5 entries in spool area lp35A is ready and printing lp35: queuing is enabled printing is enabled 7 entries in spool area waiting for lp35 to become ready (offline ?) Incidentally, nothing printed from either lp35 and lp35A (p35_05 isn't yet set up so I'm not worried about that one yet). Thanks for your help. But I'm still a little snowed by the problem.
