I had to create the /var/spool/output/lpd directory as it didn't exist. I then had to chmod it to 777 as AbiWord complained about permissions. I have one printer on my home network. It is called 'HPLJ018'. I tried lpr -PHPLJ1018 but I got the messages: lpr: connect: No such file or directory jobs queued, but cannot start daemon. I'm clueless as to what this means. I also tried lpt -Psocket://192.168.1.1:9100/printers/HPLJ1018 but that gave me the error message lpr: socket://192.168.1.1:9100/printers/HPLJ1018: unknown printer I really appreciate you guys helping me out. Could you please tell me what I'm doing wrong? Kind regards
