Welllllllllllll.....almost.  I can now print from the printconf-gui
menu, but not from any user account.  Printing attempts are greeted with
this message (running as root):

[root in directory: spool]# echo hello | lpr
Status Information:
 sending job 'root@CV150607-A+952' to lp@localhost
 connecting to 'localhost', attempt 1
 connected to 'localhost'
 requesting printer lp@localhost
 job 'root@CV150607-A+952' transfer to lp@localhost failed
  error 'NONZERO RFC1179 ERROR CODE FROM SERVER' with ack 'ACK_FAIL'
  sending str '^Blp' to lp@localhost
 error msg: 'spool queue for 'lp' does not exist on server
CV150607-A.norwlk1.ct.home.com'
 error msg: '   non-existent printer or you need to run 'checkpc -f'

/etc/printcap perms look like:

-rw-r--r--    1 root     root          777 Nov 20 20:28 printcap

My  /var/spool/lpd/HP1100A looks like:

drwx------    2 lp       lp           4096 Nov 20 20:28 HP1100A

If I try to cd into the directory as other than root, I get permission
denied.

Help?????
