hi, there's a problem i can't seem to figure out, yet my comprehension of how linux works is not very extensive but I do know my ways in it. There is just one thing i haven't quite figured out yet: printing. For as far as I know everything is configured correctly; kernel (2.2.13) supports the printer port (using /dev/lp0); and the printer (hp deskjet 660c) shows up in dmesg. I know the setup should work because i can send lines to the printer like this: cat 'file' >/dev/lp0 yet when i try printing from a program, say a word processor, it doesn't do anything. The printer command lpr says it's sending to the printer but nothing happens (i tried using commandline arguments but that didn't change anything). I've been going through magicfilter-config and everything seems to be set ok and there's a *TeX package installed. any clues? any reply would be apreciated :)
