Hi all,
I'm trying to set up cups to print with a network printer.
I did the whole
http://localhost:631 thing.
The test page prints fine, but when I try to print from anything else it doesn't work.
Here's a sample from the command line:
ang@pc-angelo:~> lpr -Pjet5m /etc/hosts
Status Information, attempt 1 of 3:
sending job 'ang@pc-angelo+74' to jet5m@localhost
connecting to 'localhost', attempt 1
cannot open connection to localhost - No such file or directory
Make sure the remote host supports the LPD protocol
and accepts connections from this host and from non-privileged (>1023) ports
Waiting 10 seconds before retry
Here's the /etc/printcap:
# This file was automatically generated by cupsd(8) from the
# /etc/cups/printers.conf file. All changes to this file
# will be lost.
jet5m|jet5m:rm=pc-angelo:rp=jet5m:
I set up the printer in CUPS with device URI: lpd://10.5.0.2/lp
Any help is appreciated.
Angelo
