You do not need that. Another test might be to see if debian system can print to itself via lpd. Go to the cups printer administration page. Add a new printer and use the printer url at lpd://localhost/xxx Where xxx is your printername. Use a printer type of raw Then try to print to the printer e.g. echo "hello" | lpr -P newprintername If that works then the problem lies on the Solaris box (or in the access control lists of cups) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
