Installed Mandrake 7.1 along with HPLaserjet 4l printer (non-postscript).

WordPerfect runs the printer without a problem. But, when I try to print a test.txt 
file

$lpr text.txt

I get: 

lpr: lp:: printer unknown.

#printtool reveals that the printer is indeed there at lp0.
It prints a  Ascii test file directly to port, but nothing happens when I simply run 
the Print Ascii test page.

Even installing PDQ and running it does not solve the problem.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.. (Yes, the printer is connected.)
