I am using Lenny, up2date. I use CUPS for printing, and everything prints just

had the correct gutenprint printer, and I said OK. nothing printed.

I had Gutenprint problems with my HP6 laser printer. changed to foomatic
and it works now. YMMV
but I see a /var/log/lpr.log that has this in it:
# more lpr.log

Nov 21 05:43:30 paulandcilla lpd[11702]: /dev/lp0: No such file or directory

then I saw an email from someone that mentioned lpq so I ran it and got this:
# lpq -a
lp:

what does this mean, and what do I do to fix it?
I had to go into cups for each of my printer and look at the jobs. I
deleated all pending jobs and lpq -a didn't find them anymore.
