Can't print to network printer

[Michael Burns_7]

I am looking at the problem posted by Bill Sadvary and I have the EXACT same problem... I found the permissions the same as he said his were. After changing perms... what other actions are required to have them take effect?

not a unix guy...

Try removing and adding the printer using addqueue and the IP address of the printer:

/opt/hpnpl/bin/removequeue -q local_prn_name
/opt/hpnpl/bin/addqueue -h 192.168.20.9 -q myprinter

Then try printing with:

lp -dmyprinter -odebugm /var/tmp/debug.log /etc/issue

There will be a file in /var/tmp/debug.log that should give a lot of details. If it works OK, use the same option with a bigger job. This assumes that the printer is an HP printer with an internal JetDirect LAN card.



problem solved.
