More on lpd problem Cc: marvin@swt.net Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I apologize! I neglected to include the fact that the printer works from W95. The problem only occurs with FreeBSD (2.1.5). The FAQ suggests a hardware problem but I should have thought that a hardware problem would affect both. Suggestions sincerely appreciated--including how I may test hardware. > From crs Fri Mar 7 10:42:10 1997 > To: questions@freebsd.org > Subject: lpd question > > Printing had been working fine.
