Printing Problem

xbaez · 07-01-2004, 04:54 PM

Dear LQ visitors

When I try to print a file, the printer doesn't works

And when I try to access the Print Manager, I receive the following error:

Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See http://www.gnome.org/projects/gconf/ for information. (Details - 1: Failed to convert IOR '' to an object reference 2: Failed to convert IOR '' to an object reference)

I already tried creating a new user (which can successfully log on to KDE or Gnmoe) but the error remains

Any ideas?

Regards

what distro are you running? what kind of printer is this? how is it connected?

I am running RedHat 9

It's a standard RedHat 9, and it was working ok, the printer Laser Jet 4L

It was working ok before, I think it's a problem with Gnome
