I wasn't able to get cups to work so installed lprng. For more details on my problem go to the archives and search against my name and 'print' and 'cups' This is what I see in my log. It says at least two spoolers active but ps -A reveals only one. 2006-02-19-14:13:11.018 sarawak [5955] lpd Do_lock: flock failed 'Resource temporarily unavailable' Fatal error - Another print spooler active, possibly lpd process '5948' 2006-02-19-14:13:11.022 sarawak [5955] lpd cleanup: done, exit(0) After running lprng stop ps-A reveals _no_ lpd processes and after attempts to print the log reports that the printer is "waiting". I used # lpd -F -D1 to read the log according to the instructions at lprng.com/PrintingCookbook/index.html Someone suggested that that particular command started another spooler. But if everything was alright in the first place it should have printed (lpr -J file.txt) before having to look at the log to see what was wrong. -mw __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
