Hi all,
I'm having trouble getting a local printer to work on my ltsp server
running 4.1.1 and Libranet 3.0. I think it might be a problem with
cups, but I could be wrong. I've tried two printers; here's what I've
done, and the results:
The printer is configured in lts.conf like so:
PRINTER_0_DEVICE = /dev/lp0
PRINTER_0_TYPE = P
With the first printer (a Samsung ML-4500) I could telnet to the
workstation at 192.168.0.9 port 9100, and when I hit CTRL+L to make it
print/feed, it would make a noise but would neither print nor feed the
paper through. Just to test if it was a printer or other hardware
problem, I booted into Knoppix on the workstation, set up the printer as
a local printer, and it worked perfectly. However, when I added it as a
cups printer on the server, (as a JetDirect printer to
socket://192.168.0.9:9100, nothing would happen at all when I tried
printing.
Next I tried an HP Laserjet 1100, and when I telnetted to it, I could
make it print and feed by hitting CTRL+L. However, it acts the same way
as the Samsung when I try it through cups: nothing. I have two network
printers configured in cups, and they work just fine. Can anybody give
me advice on what to try next? I'm stumped.
Thanks,
Cindy
