I am using Solaris 9 (sparc) and have an HP LaserJet 2100 TN that I print to over a home network.
I can print to it from the console using lpr with no problem. However, in CDE I can print from only some applications: Yes --- Calendar Image Viewer Netscape No -- Address Manger Help Viewer Mailer Man Page Viewer Text Editor In all cases (even when nothing prints out), after selecting the 'Print...' option from the 'File' menu, 'laserjet' is shown as the destination printer, and when I click 'OK' in all cases a dialog box pops up with: 'request id is laserjet-(some number here) (standard input)' The same files that do not print from the 'Text Editor' application can be printed from the console using lpr. Here is how I configured the printer: # lpadmin -p laserjet -v /dev/null -m netstandard -o dest=laserjet:text -o protocol=bsd -o banner=never -o timeout=60 Print services started. # enable laserjet printer "laserjet" now enabled # accept laserjet destination "laserjet" now accepting requests # lpadmin -p laserjet -I any In my environment LPDEST=laserjet In 'Print Manager', 'laserjet' is visible and set as the default printer. The only odd thing I see is 2 entries for 'laserjet' when I do a 'lpstat -a': # lpstat -a laserjet accepting requests since Wed Aug 18 23:27:05 EST 2004 laserjet accepting requests since Wed Aug 18 23:27:05 EST 2004 There are no errors in .dt/errorlog Any ideas? I am sure I am missing something obvious. Barry _______________________________________________ Solaris-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.filibeto.org/mailman/listinfo/solaris-users
