@ all,

I restarted machine and I can print from command line :)

[olivares@quadcore ~/Documents]$ cat Document1.txt |  lpr -P Deskjet
[olivares@quadcore ~/Documents]$ lpq -a
Deskjet:
Deskjet is ready and printing
Rank   Owner      Job  Files                                 Total Size

[olivares@quadcore ~/Documents]$

Now how do I configure apps like Firefox, evince, LibreOffice to print?


Ok I have figured it out :)

I need to change `lpr` to `lpr -P Deskjet` and it will print.

lpr uses the "lp" queue by default. If that queue is capable of accepting PostScript (with a filter, in this case), all that's needed is for the application to use lpr.
