Re: Printing Failure



mornin',


my printing experiences are ltd to hp laserjets, so i'm
trying the "osmosis" approach...

anyway, whenever my printing jobs hide (usually after
my kerneling, for some odd reason), i have to do four
things:

1.  rm /etc/printcap;

2.  re-run magicfilterconfig;

3.  lprn stop

4.  lprn start


hth.
