Hi!
I'm using netatalk 1.42b2 on S.u.S.E 5.1 Linux-Box!
Printing from Linux to the printer (attached to parallel port linux box)
works fine, but not from the macs.
I heard about some problems using lp or plp with spooling. I tried both
with adding some links from "/dev/lp1" to "/dev/printer" and
"/var/run/printer". But I didn't succed. I got the following messages:
Dec 16 22:23:59 lisa papd[160]: child 230 for "LaserJet 6P L" from
65280.27
Dec 16 22:23:59 lisa papd[230]: read_ppd .ppd: No such file or
directory
Dec 16 22:24:06 lisa papd[230]: lp_conn_unix connect /dev/printer:
Connection refused
Dec 16 22:24:06 lisa papd[230]: lp_print: lp_conn_unix: Connection
refused
Dec 16 22:24:06 lisa papd[160]: child 230
done
But I'm not sure how to fix the problem.
Which printer spooler should I take?
Has anyone an idea?
Regards
Lutz
