CUPS only prints the test page
Hi, All,
I'm running FreeBSD 5.4 beta. I installed CUPS and can access http://localhost:631/ fine. I can also print test pages from the administration web interface. However, I cannot print anything from the command line. Apparently nothing is sent to CUPS, because lpc shows that everything is being hold up in the queue: Code:
> lpc status lw4 Thanks a lot! PS: CUPS used to work properly on my machine at some point. |
I'm not terribly familiar with CUPS (as I typically get the same kind of thing out of it that you describe), but are you sure you're client programs are using the right spooler? Meaning -- the base system installs the BSD lpr and friends in /usr/s?bin, where CUPS will install to /usr/local/s?bin, which is typically after /usr/s?bin in $PATH.
I'm mostly guessing, but I have run into that before. If you get fed up with it, print/apsfilter works great, and doesn't (generally) give the headaches that CUPS is famous for handing out. |
