I did the stop and start as you suggested and got replies that lpd was stopped and started. I do not know what you mean by "You did put printer support in the kernel or a kernel module, right?" My understanding is that I am using modules and I added the lp module with modconfig. Is there another "printer" module that needs added? I see a "parport" and a "parport_pc" under misc where the lp module is. And, there is a line "alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc" in the /etc/conf.modules file.

I just restart my print spooler: /etc/init.d/lprng stop /etc/init.d/lprng start I believe there is also a '/etc/init.d/lprng restart' but I am not sure. You might be using a different print spooler that I use. You did put printer support in the kernel or a kernel module, right? -- Andrew On 08-Jul-2000 16:01:37 R. D.
