However, try using a less "stripped" down version of command output, when you post commands, because it might be a little hard to guess which line is your input, and which is output you got. Try something like: # ps ax | grep lpd 1630 p1 D+ 0:00.02 grep lpd On the printer topic now... It might be a bit helpful to send your relevant /etc/printcap entry, along with a small explanation of what you expect it to do. Other changes to the filters used for printing, could probably help in understanding what's wrong. But, just a silly question... when you talk directly to your printer, using /dev/lpt0 does it actually print what you send?
