If you add the directory information, but leave the extension as .ps, it

Robin,
I did an "apt-cache search gv" and found that I have ghostscript. Is this a

I installed xpp, and I think it has helped to narrow down the problem. Now
when I print, the xpp window pops up and I get only part of the file name in
the space where file name should appear.

No, I don't have xpp. I'll install it and see if it fixes the problem...

Thanks to everyone for trying to help me with this problem!
I'm still trying to get this to work. I needed some mailing labels for
Christmas, so I resorted to plugging in an old hard drive that has Windows 95
and Wordperfect. (By the way, is it possible to print address labels with
Lyx?)

Thanks for the suggestions. I tried "Edit -> Preferences -> Outputs,"
setting the name to lp and the spool command to lp.cups. Nothing happened
when I tried to print. Also tried setting both to lp; and leaving spool
command blank.
When I tried "lpr testfile.ps" from the console it worked.

Sure. Edit -> Preferences -> Outputs. Then set your spool command to lp.cups
or whatever you have linked to that command (probably lp, if anything). If
you have more than one printer configured you may need to change the to
printer from -P to whatever destination you need to use.

I installed Debian and am able to print from Kword using CUPS. I'd like to
