Hello, I'm posting to the mailing list because I've a problem I'm unable to solve by myself. I read the FAQ, browsed the web mailing list, but unfortunately didn't found an answer.
The problem is quite simple. I've defined very basic printers in /etc/printcap. lp :sd=/var/spool/lp/lpd :lp=printer_FDQN%9100 :mx=0 As you can see, the entry is trivial. The printer is an HP laserjet. It is possible to send a job through the port 9100 with netcat. What happens when I launch a job is that the job is accepted by lpr, but nothing is printed. Moreover, a new lpd process is running and consumes 100% of the CPU time; it never dies and I need to 1� kill the process and 2� empty the queue. I've checked with several versions of LPRng, but no changes. Anyone an idea?
