Hi, Thanks for the tip. It's apparently too simple to be true for me. I still can't print to it. I can submit jobs to the queue, but they don't get printed. Here's a listing of the queue:
Printer: color_laser@tovarish (dest [EMAIL PROTECTED]) Queue: 2 printable jobs Server: pid 4527 active Unspooler: pid 4528 active Status: sending control file 'cfA404tovarish.emeraldbiostructures.com' to [EMAIL PROTECTED] at 14:25:48.158 Rank Owner/ID Class Job Files Size Time 1 root A 404 /usr/share/printconf/t 193 14:13:20 2 root@tovarish+532 A 532 /usr/share/printconf 18052 14:25:31 Printer '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' - cannot open connection - Connection timed out It looks like I can't connect to the printer from a Linux machine. But then how come the submitted jobs show up in the queue? Any more suggestions?
