"lpc status lp" command reports that it is up, a job is spooled, and the printer is idle but nothing comes out. I am finding the following ... in /var/log/lpd.errs: lp: unable to open dfA000xenon ('f' line) lp: job could not be printed (cfA000xenon) xenon is the name of my computer. I am wondering if this is another problem with my hosts file?
Hmm. Not sure. It might be. If you have a job sitting in the queue, then go into the spool directory for that printer (the 'sd=' value in your /etc/printcap entry). You should see one filename starting with 'cfA', and at least one more, which starts with 'dfA'. See what lines are in the control file. Chances are pretty good you have a line: fdfA000xenon So the question is whether 'dfA000xenon' is another file in that directory. -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = [EMAIL PROTECTED] Senior Systems Programmer or [EMAIL PROTECTED] Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
