I recently purchased The Complete FreeBSD and it doesn't seem to spend much time on remote printing. I put the name of the printer with it's IP address in my /etc/hosts file and also inserted it's name into the remote printer line in /etc/rc.conf but when I start LPD and try to send a print job to it, it just sits in LPQ. I even installed Ghostscript55 and Ghostview and included the proper drivers. The printer is an HP 4000 LaserJet. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
