Hi.
Looking to figure out what I've missed/left out in setting up printer
access to a network/wireless HP printer. I can access the printer from
the same box if i select print from the "gedit" app...
But I can't figure out/recall what has to be used from the command line!!!
$ lpc status
HP-Officejet-Pro-8600:
printer is on device 'socket' speed -1
queuing is enabled
printing is enabled
2 entries
daemon present
$ lpstat -t
scheduler is running
system default destination: HP-Officejet-Pro-8600
device for HP-Officejet-Pro-8600: socket://192.168.5.60:9100

printer HP-Officejet-Pro-8600 now printing HP-Officejet-Pro-8600-10.

$ lpq
HP-Officejet-Pro-8600 is ready and printing
Rank Owner Job File(s) Total Size
active ihubuse 10 child.php 1024 bytes
1st ihubuse 12 (stdin) 4096 bytes
so, if i have a test file "cat.txt", I thought the command to print was
lpr -P HP-Officejet-Pro-8600 cat.txt
but that appears to just place the file in the queue..
now, i can get the file to pring if i open the file in the gedit app,
and do a print!!
so, what the heck am i forgetting!!
thanks
