Printing problem
Hello everyone.
I am running Debian 2.1 and I am unable to print any files that are not
ascii text. i.e. I can't print from netscape, or wordperfect but I can
type: "lpr asciifilename" at the shell command and that works.
I know I'm using the correct driver for my printer. What else could I be
doing wrong?
Could something be wrong with my printcap file? This is the one i'm
using.
lp|hplj4l|HP Laserjet 4L:\
:lp=/dev/lp1:sd=/var/spool/lpd/hplj4l:\
:sh:pw#80:pl#66:px#1440:mx#0:\
:if=/etc/magicfilter/ljet4m-filter:\
:af=/var/log/lp-acct:lf=/var/log/lp-errs:
Thanks in advance.
P.S. When I print from Word Perfect I get no error. The job gets queued
but not printed. When I try to print from Netscape I get this error:
lpr: could not connect. No such file or directory. Job queued but cannot
start daemon. Am I missing my lpr daemon. How can I get it back?
