Since this is a standalone machine I did both the above and still no luck. I am trapping the output of the hpset and it says is still can't open the /dev/lp1 device, it just cat's it to it. #ls -l /usr/local/bin/hpset 11 -rwxr-sr-x 1 root lp 10445 Jul 10 16:47 /usr/local/bin/hpset* #ls -l /dev/lp1 0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root lp 6, 1 May 28 17:16 /dev/lp1 I am really confused. As root it works, as a regular user it works but as the printer daemon it does not work!
