| 92049 | 2002-10-23 05:45:00 | I am starting to use Linux and have, at different times loaded Red Hat 7.2 and I am having printing problems. My setup recognises that I have a HP Dj820 attached to the parallel port and I can see the print jobs being sent to the spooler and to the printer but nothing happens I have no problem printing in Windows. Any clues as to why this occurs |

| 92051 | 2002-10-24 08:50:00 | no, when i print it all looks ok, and the print job is sent but i don't know where it goes | nzduke (2323) | ||
| 92052 | 2002-10-25 03:14:00 | Try (in a terminal screen) the useful commands lpq and lpc. The queue might be suspended for some reason. Are you sure that lpd is running? (ps aux | grep lpd) Start lpc with no options and type "help" for the options. Try restarting the queue. | Graham L (2) | ||
