Hello,
I installed debian and it doesn't print. The printcap file is unchanged
and looks allright. The machine prints with Red Hat, so
it isn't hardware. The message I get is
lpr: unable to get official name for local machine
If I enter
hostname
I get the hostname (debian). When I
cat printcap > /dev/lp1
it prints. When I do
lpc status
I get
queuing is enabled
printing is enabled
no entries
no daemon present
When I do
ps -aux | grep lpd
I see the lpd as a process.
Can anyone explain
1. what the error message means and why lpr doesn't work?
2. why does lpc report no daemon is present when lpd is running?
Thanks in advance
