Hello,

I just upgraded to kernel 2.4.3 and I can't get the printer to work for
the life of me!
It worked fine under 2.4.2 and 2.2.x.
The message I get when attempting to print is:

Status Information:
 sending job 'Lance@localhost+567' to lp@localhost
 connecting to 'localhost', attempt 1
 cannot open connection to localhost - Connection timed out
Make sure LPD server is running on the server

What's this "cannot open connection to localhost?"

I block this port with my firewall.
i.e. iptables INPUT -p tcp --dport (printer spool port) -j DROP
This wouldn't have anything to do with it would it?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Lance
