I'm trying to configure a parallel port printer on my RH7.1
box. I do have the lp module compiled and loaded in my kernel.
I send jobs vi lp -d and lpr, and I know the go into the spool
(checked that via lpstat). But, they don't print and they do get
cleaned out of the spool. My log file in the /var/spool/lpd/printername
directory is empty.
I did put the printer in my printcap, but I don't know if I did
it properly. I'm trying to find a "Printer HowTo", but all that
I've found so far lead you down the "printtool" path, which won't
work for me since I don't had X on this box.
Can anyone recommend a good "Console-Based Printer HowTo"?
