Subject: using lpr to a network laser printer using tcp Date: Sat, 25 Jan 2003 15:29:33 -0600 From: Clare Jarvis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] <[email protected]> Hello, I am a software developer, who is porting my software to Linux. When I use KDE interface to setup the a printer under Caldera 3.1 I select TCP IP 192.168.20.89 PORT 9100 RAW (No driver) I can use the command line lpr interface and it works fine. When conifugring with KDE in Debian version"Woody" I first select type printer lpr I select TCP IP 192.168.20.89 PORT 9100 RAW (No driver) It will not let me save the configuration say "Backend not supported socket" if I select type printer cuts I select TCP IP 192.168.20.89 PORT 9100 RAW (No driver) It lets me save the configuration, but when I run lpr -Plaser89 I get the message "Unknown printer" even though the printer is plainly there when using the lpstat -t Help. How can I print to this printer from the command line. I don't have to use lpr but I do need to use a spooler.
