Okay, I checked in /etc/lprng and found a link to /etc/printcap.
The link is good, and the default path to printcat for lprng is
to this link.
With my fiddling, I think I made it worse. Now when I try to
print, the job show in error in the queue (lpq) and the printer
prints "Unknown device: pc13" and thats it.
thanks,
