Could be a problem with the permissions for your spooling directory,
/var/spool/lpd/lp.
LPRng has a utility, checkpc, for managing your spooling directories. Try
running "checkpc -f" as root.

Subject: LPRng: Trouble after initial installation
I recently installed the most recent version of LPRng on my Dell Pentium
II-400 MHz system running Redhat 7.0.
I have an Epson 740 connected to parallel port 1. I can print to the
printer in "Printtool" using the Print Directly to Port and I get the one
line test message. But if I try to print either the ASCII or Postscript
test page, I get the following series of messages.
... transfer to lp@localhost failed
NONZERO RFC1179 ERROR CODE FROM SERVER with ack
'ACK_FAIL'
sending str '^Blp' to lp@localhost
error msg: 'printer 'lp', chdir to '/var/spool/lpd/lp'
failed 'Permission
denied''
Any help in resolving this would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jess
