hiho, do you running lpr or lprng ? lpr on potato gave me some trouble with magicfilter. try a "lpc local all". do you see any printcap information ? you can list the defaults with "lpc defaults". look for "printcap_path". there should be a line "printcap_path =/etc/printcap". perhaps your package is built with wrong paths :( tell me the results, please. ciao -ap ___________________________________________________________________ Andreas Piesk [EMAIL PROTECTED] pgp fingerprint: 23CB A7E2 2E53 373C DBCD 8EFC 7777 61C1 ___________________________________________________________________ What goes up, must come down.
