[Ltsp-discuss] LTSP and Printing to Local Terminal Issue

[Michael Elliott]

Hello and thank you for taking the time to read my note.  I apologize for posting this message at this group - I posted at K12LTSP and did not receive any advice. I have two identical hardware setups for K12LTSP 4.0.  I make a duplicate of my original K12LTSP to the second which I intend to use at a different office.  With that said, I did change the IP addresses of both NICs in the system. I am trying to setup a local deskjet 842c printer on a generic PC that has an Intel CA810E motherboard and 3Com NIC.  I am able to add the printer through the Fedora printer configuration applet as a JetDirect pointing to the IP of the computer, which I have mapped to the MAC address in dhcpd.conf.  However, when I attempt the CUPS test print, nothing happens.  The printer status reads - "Network host '192.168.0.154' busy: will try again in X seconds." On the original system I had a similar message about a year ago - I changed my lts.conf from: [ws154]  [MAC Address]  PRINTER_0_DEVICE = /dev/lp0  PRINTER_0_TYPE = P to: [ws154] PRINTER_0_DEVICE = /dev/lp0 PRINTER_0_TYPE = P This change solved the issue on the original system. I tried this on the second system with and without the MAC address section.  Neither helped.  I updated the system BIOS and changed the printer port from Bi-directional to ECP.  Did not help either. The last time I tried I did say that the test print failed and I was given an error log: - Adding start banner page "none" to job 1489 - Adding end banner page "non" to job 1489 - Job 1489 queued on 'DJ842C' by 'root' - Started filter /usr/lib/cups/filter/pstops (PID 28105) for job 1489 - Started filter /usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip (PID 28106) for job 1489 - Started backend /usr/lib/cups/backend/socket (PID 28107) for job 1489 The original system works correctly with no issues.  The second (which is having the above problem) I have added an actual HP JetDirect print queue which works correctly as well. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, Thanks, Mike ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by Demarc: A global provider of Threat Management Solutions.
