Jim,
I had tried the PRINTER_0_WRITE_ONLY = Y on three different printer/client combos but had no joy.

  I use the USB printing to work-around the problem.

  Sorry.

For everybody having trouble with parallel printers on LTSP-4.2, I have a simple fix that should help you.

In your lts.conf file, try adding this line:

       PRINTER_0_WRITE_ONLY = Y

This has been helpful for 2 people already today, and if I get feedback from several others saying that it fixed the problem, then I'll make that setting the default.

Thanks,

Hello all,

I have the same problem with an ink jet parallel printer. I think the problem is in the 'lp_server' daemon. If I connect a dot matrix parallel printer or a usb printer, it works. But if I connect an ink jet parallel printer (EPSON C43 SX), it doesn't work. With all the printers I test, I can cat a file and send to the /dev/lp0 or /dev/usb/lp0 depending on the printer type. With de ink jet parallel printer, I can telnet to the terminal on port 9100, before of that if i try to cat a file to /dev/lp0 it responds 'Device is busy'. That means the daemon is listening, but doesn't print anything.

Thanks.

Hello all,


I think I'm too old... :) But anyway, I can't print on a parallel
printer using LTSP 4.2 with usb printers it's all ok.

Being more specific:

In terminal, dmesg shows that parpport0 is linked to lp0, the printer
type is detected, I can cat a file and send to the /dev/lp0 and it's
printed. But when I go to the cups and send some page trough it...
nothing happens, it doesn't get printed.

I can telnet to the terminal in port 9100... The /var/log/cups/error_log
doesn't print nothing usefull. I can see the socket jobs gets open
listing 'ps aux | get sock' and the 'netstat -an | grep 9100' shows the
socket with the estabilished connection to the right ip.

The terminal knows it name, and the ip address is correctly assigned. I
can't see nothing wrong.
