I gave up with lpsched and loaded plp (lprng wouldn't compile). Well it
sort of works, but not usably.
If you print from a Mac via a papd spool the first job prints fine, then
this is what you see.
In /var/adm/messages:
papd[1388]:lp_conn_unix connect /dev/printer: No such file or directory
papd[1388]: lp_print: lp_conn_unix: Resource temporarily unavailable
for each print job that you add and also the queue builds:
Printer lp on machine.oaty.com
Warning: queue is not active (no server present).
using lpc to down and up the queue seems to start printing again and all
the waiting jobs print, not just the first... then the next job starts the
cycle all over again...
Anybody have any smart ideas ? What is /dev/printer supposed to be doing ?
Why does papd try to open it ?
