Ok - so kernel works and printer works... > I then install groff and tried printing with magicfilter printcap > and it printed "unknown device: pc13". I then changed to the > printcap you suggested earlier and tried to print with lpr and > got nothing to the printer, and lpq showed the job in error. It's gs then.. The filter is set up correctly but gs doesn't seem to recognize pc13. I should have seen that before. gs -sDEVICE=pcl3 is the setting used by gs... It works here in unstable and woody.... [that device] Maybe try reinstalling gs? If your printing stopped working after an upgrade, maybe you need to upgrade it again [buggy package?] Hope this helps, Adam
