Not able to print using lp thro jetDirect

Hi,

I installed jetDirect into a newly installed rp3440 running UX11i. New print queue created and tested without problem but not able to print using lp -d command. It does not shown in the request after submitted the lp command.

I followed the following thread but no success:

Any advice is appreciated.




Thanks in advance,
YC

Shutdown lpsched. Start it. lpsched -v
Fire a print job. check /var/adm/lp/log file.
Also do as follows.

hpnpadmin -v "print_queue"

Hope this helps

Hi


lpshut
lpsched -v

Print 2 things

look in /var/spool/lp/log

then
lpshut
lpsched


Also if you do lp -d 09_07_001_hp2

It will try for the default which you do not have and think the printer 09_07_001_hp2 is a file



Use
/usr/sbin/lpadmin -d09_07_001_hp2

To make it the default

Re: Not able to print using lp thro jetDirect

What is output of:

lpstat -d


If nothing, then follow Steve's response.

Re: Not able to print using lp thro jetDirect

Managed to find the solution by comparing the print queue files and directories with other server. The directory /etc/lp/interface/model.orig was set to 700 after jetDirect installed. It should be 755.
