I have Slackware 10.2 with cups 1.1.23. Things were OK until
I put a Puppy Linux PC on my LAN. I've taken it away now but
still I get nothing when I attempt to print (eg via enscript asciifile).
The printer's LEDs show its online. Also I can command escputil
to get, say, ink levels.
My default (and only) printer is D92. This is the response I get from lpstat -t

scheduler is running
system default destination: D92
device for D92:

Waiting for job to complete...

D92-11 remroot 13312 Wed 05 May 2010 01:22:24 AM BST
-----------------------
I get this sort of thing even after restarting cups (/etc/rc.d/rc.cups restart) and
even after I have removed all files (lots) from /var/spool/cups
Why remroot? I have no such user or group.
