When I subsequently try to print, my printer sounds as if it's getting ready to print, but nothing is printed. When I check the print que, it's empty. Also, I'm getting no errors from the print log (I've started with lpd -l). However, if I restart lpd after the machine has booted up, everything seems to work just fine. Any ideas about what's going on here? I'd rather not have to restart lpd after booting since I'm not the only one using the printer and won't remember to do this.
