Hi All, I'm having some trouble getting my printer to work across my network. The printer works like a champ on the local machine (sendack, 192.168.1.1). But when I try from the remote machine (derico, 192.168.1.2) nothing happens and when I run lpq I get this:
--------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ lpr HelloWorld [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ lpq derico: waiting for queue to be enabled on 192.168.1.1 Rank Owner Job Files Total Size 1st dixon 3 HelloWorld 21 bytes 2nd dixon 4 HelloWorld 21 bytes /usr/sbin/lpd: lp: Host name for your address (192.168.1.2) unknown --------------------------------------------------- On 192.168.1.1, sendack, there is this message in /var/spool/hplj3p/status: -------------------------------------------------- lp is ready and printing -------------------------------------------------- so I don't understand why it is waiting for the queue to be enabled. I also have 192.168.1.2 resolved to derico in /etc/hosts on both machines so I don't understand why lp doesn't know the host name. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
