LP configuration problem

parolin franco — Fri, 18 Jul 2003 08:19:59 GMT

Server with hpux11, I configured a printer whith lpadmin :
/usr/sbin/lpadmin -pstampa -v/dev/null -mrmodel -orc -ob3 -ocmrcmodel -osmrsmodel -ormstampa -orp pr5.

if i send a file with command:

lp -dstampa prova

the answer of system is :
lp: can't access file "/tmp/sp"
lp: request not accepted

the file tmp/sp is rwxrwxrwx.
Can I solve the problem ???
Many thanks

Hi,

How about if you say "cat prova|lp -dstampa"?.
This way permissions will not come into picture. lp will need to have read permissions on the directory from where the file is being printed.

Hi Franco,

how is the acceptance status of the printer ?

And why the lp is using the /tmp/sp ?
Did you changed the model ?

Another check: is this the only non working printer? how are permission of /tmp ?

HTH,
Massimo
