Hi Guys,

I too am having some issues with local client printing. I have setup a
printer on my ws1, and edited the lts.conf file to contain the following
under the config for ws1:

PRINTER_0_DEVICE = /dev/lp0 and
PRINTER_0_TYPE   = P

On the server, I then created the printer with the printer wizard and
configured it to be a "Jet Direct" printer on port 9100.

However, when I try to print to it, it tells me the network connection is
buys, and when I try to telnet to it I get the following message:

Trying 192.168.50.151...
telnet: Connect to address 192.168.50.151: Connection refused

Is there anything I need to configure on the client to get this working?

Thanks,

Mike

Roland,

Did you tell CUPS that the printer is on a JetDirect interface
at port 9100 ?

That's what you need, because the lp_server daemon acts just like
an HP JetDirect printer server.

To test that the printer is actually working, you can
try this:

    telnet 192.168.100.6 9100

Then, whatever you type should appear on the printer.
Press Ctrl-J to advance a line and Ctrl-L to do a form-feed.

When done with that test, Ctrl-] and 'q' to quit.
