Re: network printer problems

[complaw@hal-pc.org]

I tried what you suggested.  It seemed to be a step in the right direction. 
After I issued lpc start all, and then checked lpc status all, I got reasonable
results.  Moreover, I didn't get the "connection refused" messages from my print
jobs that I had before.  However, having said all that, nothing printed.

Here is the result of lpc status all

p35_05:
	queuing is enabled
	printing is enabled
	no entries
	no daemon present
lp35A:
	queuing is enabled
	printing is enabled
	5 entries in spool area
	lp35A is ready and printing
lp35:
	queuing is enabled
	printing is enabled
	7 entries in spool area
	waiting for lp35 to become ready (offline ?)


Incidentally, nothing printed from either lp35 and lp35A (p35_05 isn't yet set
up so I'm not worried about that one yet).

Thanks for your help.  But I'm still a little snowed by the problem.
