Hi !
RH 6.1 comes with a broken lpr printer spooler, you should get the fixed
rpm of lpr and read the mail that i posted one minute before, hehe, here it
is again in shortcuts:
install the lpr-rpm with rpm -ihv --forve lpr*.rpm
try if the parallel port can be accessed directly with cat somefilename >
/dev/lp0 (guessing that the printer is on LPT1)
then set it up with printtool or manually.
If problems still remain figure out if this printer is on the redhat
supported hardware list.
hth, greez
