Alright Ladies and Gentlemen, here is round three of the still-not-solved
network printing problem.
upon typing the command:
lpr -Plp35 test.txt
I get:
lpr; connect: Connection refused
jobs queried, but cannot start daemon.
I ran
lpq -Plp35
and got:
Warning: unable to get official name for local machine LinuxIP.bakerbotts.com
lp35 is ready and printing
Rank Owner Job Files Total Size
active ronc 197 (standard input) 287775 bytes
1st ronc 198 mountcd 28 bytes
2nd ronc 199 mountcd 28 bytes
When I run
cat /var/spool/lpd/lp35/status
I get:
lp35 is ready and printing
Here is the contents of /var/log/lpr.log
