printing on sparc
How does one go about setting up printing on a Sparc?
The kernel supports parallel devices, I've installed and set up apsfilter
(pretty much identically to my previous printserver, an x86 box).
lpr runs fine and spools, but nothing ever prints. Attempting to cat a text
file results in the following message:
kodai:~# cat /tmp/pppcheck.tmp > /dev/lp0
bash: /dev/lp0: No such device
even though 'ls -l /dev/lp*' shows:
crw-rw-rw- 1 root lp 6, 0 Jan 1 04:24 /dev/lp0
crw-rw---- 1 root lp 6, 1 Jan 1 04:24 /dev/lp1
crw-rw---- 1 root lp 6, 2 Jan 1 04:24 /dev/lp2
I've done some digging for an answer to this but have so far found nothing;
any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
