Doing something wrong
Authored by: bbc on Feb 12, '02 04:28:10PM

I have tried these tips, but can't get it to work
I've copied the printcap example from this article verbatum, except for the location of lpd-hack.
I've used the pdf conversion script listed in the last reply, again verbatum.
I get no errors, even after entering the lpr command. After trying to print,
I use lpq to view the queue, and this is the result I get:

Warning: unable to get official name for remote machine stylus color 740

se.mediaone.net: Warning: no daemon present
Rank Owner Job Files Total Size
1st root 0 /billscrap/test 15 bytes

lpq: lp: unknown host stylus color 740

My stylus color 740 is attached by a USB port. I don't have the device /dev/usblp0 created.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance,
Bill
