I've not experienced that one yet. Try dpkg --configure --pending It looks like lpr is there but not setup properly. If that doesn't work try using dselect to wipe out lpr (using "_" underscore) then re-install it. It will set it up for you properly and tell you the dependencies etc... --Rick [EMAIL PROTECTED]
