Re: I hate printers

hi ya 

you need to fix/upgrade lpd or whichever printer daemon you
are using

	/etc/init.d/lpd start
	( for example might be all that might be needed ?? )

what is the results of ...
	/etc/init.d/lpd status

what is in /etc/hosts.allow, /etc/hosts.deny,  your firewall configs

have fun
