Hi All,
I can't printover the network.
When I submit a print job I get the following error

[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# lpr [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- /home/phil/3465317ExtremePerformanceTuning.pdf

Status Information:
 sending job '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 connecting to '192.168.1.4', attempt 1
 cannot open connection to 192.168.1.4 - Connection timed out
Make sure the remote host supports the LPD protocol

But I can ping 192.168.1.4 to which the remote printer is connected from 192.168.1.2 which is submitting the print job.

Is the problem in the print queues for either machine?
The submitting maching, 192.168.1.2 has the following parameters in the print queue:


lp:\
        :ml#0:\
        :mx#0:\
        :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
        :af=/var/spool/lpd/lp/lp.acct:\
        :sh:\
        :rm=192.168.1.4:\
        :rp=lp:\
        :bk:\
        :control_filter=/usr/share/printconf/util/strip_control_file.sh:\
        :lpd_bounce=true:\
        :if=/usr/share/printconf/util/mf_wrapper:

And the /etc/printcap for the machine 192.168.1.4 with the local printer attached is:

lp:\
        :ml#0:\
        :mx#0:\
        :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
        :af=/var/spool/lpd/lp/lp.acct:\
        :sh:\
        :lp=/dev/lp0:\
        :lpd_bounce=true:\
        :if=/usr/share/printconf/util/mf_wrapper:

and the machine with the local printer, 192.168.1.4 has a hosts.lpd file that contains:
hardwoodthunder.OBJECTPOWER
192.168.1.2


They are the IP address and the name of the submitting machine.

What am I missing?
Thanks,
Phil Campaigne
