I tried that and it doesn't seem to work... here's my /etc/printcap:
# /etc/printcap

# DO NOT EDIT! MANUAL CHANGES WILL BE LOST!
# This file is autogenerated by printconf-backend during lpd init.

# Hand edited changes can be put in /etc/printcap.local, and will be included.

Any other ideas? In the print queue window, I get an error "Server: no server
active" and it never prints.... and eventually after about 3 tries it just
kills the print job. :-(
I don't have a password on the printer if that makes any difference..and I
didn't include a password when creating the printer in printtool either...
Thanks...
John
