As Linux is up to version 2.2 or so, I trust you mean Mandrake Linux 6.1.

Have you sucessfully printed from all three of the tests in printtool? Or
the two that apply to network printers? If not, you probably need to go

You should also be able to print from the command line. See "man lpr" for
details.
