RE: printer not in printer-options
I have the same problem, plus another lprng issue.
Printer is a networked PS printer, so printcap contains rm=PRINTERNAME,
rp=PORT1.
1. Installed lpr (not lprng).
# lpr a.ps - works
kword - sees the printer, but nothing comes out.
2. Installed lprng
# lpr a.ps - error messages complaining about localhost.
Off to the lprng site: found http://www.astart.com/lprng/forcelocalhost.htm
Ugh. Tried the fix:
# lpr -PPORT1@PRINTERNAME a.ps - works ! Has someone compiled Debian's
lprng with force_localhost ??
kword - doesn't see any printers.
