You have to check if this is the USB printer device actually used.
(Chances are that '/dev/usb/lp0' is right.)

To check and debug it, activate the root account in the LTSP chroot
running 'ltsp-chroot passwd' on the main server (or on the actually used
LTSP server).

Thanks a Lot,
 

Activated root account

You can then login as root on a virtual console at the LTSP diskless client.

though I don't know exactly how I can debug I tried

ls -l /dev/usb on client

it showed me lp0

So, from tjener edited the /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf accordingly

deleted the printer

rebooted client

reinstalled it as per the instructions and shared it also

logged into client after it rebooting again

all applications show the printer now but they show it as busy,

nothing getting printed

UDAY
